ViskoTeepak / Nippi / Fibran – 7 Collagen. ViskoTeepak is working with some of the biggest and best producers in the world and can in partnership with them offer you some of the best casing solutions in the collagen business. For the U.S. market we offer Nippi as edible and Fibran as non-edible collagen. What is Collagen? Collagen is a common, naturally occurring, long, fibrous protein with remarkable properties. It has been used for many years as the primary raw material for various appli- cations, including the food and casing industry NIPPI PLANT, FUJINOMIYA, JAPAN Nippi edible collagen casing. Nippi's collagen casing business began in the wake of Dr. Nishihara's discovery of a "solubilization technology" for collagen fiber, which had long been considered insoluble. Patent application was submitted in 1960, and casing manufacturing and sales began in 1970. Nippi is recognized as the first manufacturer to successfully commercialize edible casing for sausage made from collagen and currently sells its casings to over 30 countries around the globe.
