Viscofan (ES0184262212) remains a reference name in meat casings as investors look at long-term demand for packaged protein and processed foods. Against global packaging peers such as Amcor and Sealed Air, the shares are tied to structural trends in food consumption and sustainability.
How Viscofan earns its money
Viscofan generates most of its revenue by producing artificial casings used to encase sausages, cold cuts and other meat products worldwide. The group offers cellulose, collagen, fibrous and plastic casings, selling to industrial meat processors in Europe, the Americas and Asia. Its installed capacity and diversified product mix position it as one of the largest players in this specialized packaging niche.
Position in the global packaging landscape
In food and protein packaging, Viscofan competes indirectly with broader materials and packaging companies such as Amcor and Sealed Air, which also serve global food producers with flexible and protective solutions. While Amcor and Sealed Air cover wide packaging segments from beverages to fresh produce, Viscofan focuses narrowly on casings for meat, a segment benefiting from industrialized meat processing and export flows.
