Products classified under HTS 3917.10.60.00
Collagen Sausage Casing for Pork Links
Edible collagen-based sausage casings specifically designed for encasing fresh pork sausage links, formed from hardened bovine collagen protein. These casings provide a natural-looking barrier that shrinks during cooking, classified under HTS 3917.10.60.00 as artificial guts of collagen for food processing. They meet the chapter's polymer classification by being protein-derived rather than synthetic plastic.
Edible Collagen Casing for Beef Summer Sausage
Hardened protein casings derived from collagen for semi-dry beef summer sausages, offering uniform diameter and peelability after smoking. Classified in HTS 3917.10.60.00 as 'other' artificial guts of collagen, distinct from cellulosic types per subheading notes. Ideal for meat processors seeking consistent sizing.
Collagen Protein Casing for Italian Salami
Collagen casings tailored for dry-cured Italian salami, with a fibrous texture mimicking natural intestines for authentic appearance and breathability. Falls under HTS 3917.10.60.00 as collagen-based artificial guts, per chapter notes excluding synthetic copolymers. Provides optimal moisture and smoke permeability during curing.
Bovine Collagen Sausage Skin for Breakfast Links
Thin-walled bovine collagen skins for small-diameter breakfast sausage links, designed to be edible and burst-resistant during frying. HTS 3917.10.60.00 applies to these hardened protein artificial guts, differentiated from cellulosic by material origin. Popular in high-volume meat production.
Fibrous Collagen Casing for Ring Bologna
Reinforced fibrous collagen casings for ring bologna, combining collagen film with paper reinforcement for strength in large-caliber sausages. Classified under HTS 3917.10.60.00 as 'other' collagen artificial guts, adhering to protein predominance rules. Ensures shape retention during cooking and peeling.
Collagen Edible Casing for Turkey Franks
Clear edible collagen casings for turkey frankfurters, providing snap and clarity for processed poultry products. HTS 3917.10.60.00 covers these as collagen-based sausage casings, per hardened protein definition excluding copolymers. Seamless extrusion ensures food safety.
Large Caliber Collagen Casing for Pepperoni
Thick-walled collagen casings for dry pepperoni sticks, engineered for extended fermentation and mold growth. Under HTS 3917.10.60.00 as other collagen artificial guts, compliant with protein monomer rules. Delivers traditional texture post-peeling.
Collagen Casing for Snack Sticks
