Collagen Casings for Fresh, Smoked & Snack Sausages

Make uniform, great-looking sausages with our collagen casings, made from refined beef protein for reliable strength and smooth stuffing. Available in edible and non-edible types, these casings are ideal for fresh links, smoked sausages, and snack sticks.

Fresh collagen casings are thinner and more translucent, offering a delicate bite and cooked appearance. Smoked varieties are slightly thicker for added durability, making them better suited for hanging in smokers. All varieties are dye-free, with color variations resulting from the natural raw materials and processing.

Is Collagen Casing Edible?

Most are. Fresh and smoked collagen casings in the small diameters — 19mm through 32mm — are edible and need no peeling. Larger non-edible collagen casings are peeled away before eating, like fibrous. Check the product page for the specific size you're buying.

Collagen needs no soaking and no flushing. Load the tube and stuff. That consistency in diameter is why processors use it for snack sticks and brats where every link should look the same.

Easy to use, consistent, and made for the perfect snap — only from The Sausage Maker.
