Abstract

Conventionally produced edible tubular casing is improved in its mechanical properties by being exposed to ultraviolet radiation (15) in the range of 180 nm to 420 nm. The so-treated casing is humidified (17), collapsed and wound onto a reel (18). The reel (18) of tubular casing may be transported to a point of use where it is unwound, inflated, shipped and cut into lengths as desired.
