Where did thread and twine came to people's lives from? Let’s make a small trip into history.
Threads in their usual form appeared in the Middle Ages with the invention of a tape machine, which made it possible for people to make a more delicate yarn. Before our ancestors learned to weave, they mastered the technique of needlecraft and twisting.
Our ancestors perceived the fate of a person as a twisted thread, which has its beginning and end. It was believed that with the help of symbolic weaving and magic knitting, one could even determine the future and correct it.
Another important point in the history of twist and twine is their differentiation. For a long period of time yarn and threads were quite universal. The only thickness of the thread and the full absence of variations of twines and threads with different properties and different thicknesses was an obstacle for their effective use.
Modern cotton twine and thread in the food industry is the twisted textile yarn, which is from 1 to 6 mm in diameter. The last 15 years in the production of cotton twines the 100% natural cotton threads, artificial polypropylene threads for reinforcement of twine, and also a mixture of cotton with polyester or acrylic are most often used. It is a modern high-quality yarn that brings twine more brightness. As a result, it has an excellent aesthetic look and is 70% natural.
The name of the twine most often defines its composition (cotton twine is made of 100% natural cotton yarn, linen or jute twine for cooking – of linen or jute fibers, viscose or polyester thread – of viscose and polyester yarn).
Depending on its thickness, the modern twine has the unit of measurement of its density – tex: the thinner is the twine, the lower is the tex. It shows how much a thread or twine, which is 1 km (1 kilometer) in length, weights. Tex can be converted into meters and vice versa. To ease the process we have prepared for you a special converter, with the help of which you can always find out how many meters of twine or threads there are in the bobbin.
The thickest 1500 and 2000 tex twines are most often used:
The twines of average 810 and 1200 tex thickness are most often used:
The thinnest 410 and 610 tex twines and threads are most often used for tying sausages: boiled, grilled, smoked and dried.
While choosing a twine or a thread, it is necessary first of all to determine: for what purposes do we need this product? What are we going to do with the particular kind of twine? What kind of product is going to be tied? What product is going to be packed? What production tasks should be performed? What sales goals should be achieved?
A clear definition of the sphere of usage simplifies the process of choosing, saves time and excludes the loss risks as a result of the false choice of twine or threads.
In the course of expert surveys it was discovered that meat delicacies, made with the use of natural textile twines, are in high demand because they are associated with the more natural handmade product. By changing the length and shape of sausages, ways of tying and colors of covering, labels and twines, you can reach the perfect look of sausages, which will stay in customer’s mind. Besides, this can be done on any sausage factory.
Moreover, the tying of sausage rolls with a thick twine greatly contributes to the thickening of minced meat. Furthermore, it provides sausage with a look of a rich and high-quality cooked product.
Manual tying is the usual and important process of packing sausages and meat products for most enterprises. It is simple and possible to do both on small size factories and high-tech automated manufactures.
Twines for the special customer's order can be made by a single and double twisting.
Twines or threads, made through single twisting, are called weaved. They are made through twisting several threads in one direction, collecting all the threads together.
Twines or threads, made through double twisting, are called twisted. They are made through the method of twisting of two thin twines, which are then re-twisted into one.
The properties of weaved and twisted twines are quite different due to their purposes. Therefore, it is very important to clearly differentiate the specificity of your production and its technological tasks.
Let us introduce you a unique marketing – the mix of color in the practical usage of modern twines and threads. We have devoted more than 5 years to technological researching and combination of our practical experience in the 2 new marketing areas: color technologies and consumer psychology.
