ABSTRACT:
A carcass shroud is formed from a liquid water porous hydrophobic and oleophilic polyolefin sheet. Preferably, the sheet is a spun-bonded fabric, such as spun-bonded polypropylene or a perforated polyolefin film having liquid water porosity. Preferably, a surfactant is dispersed throughout the shroud fabric or coated onto the film. Sodium chloride may also be dispersed in the shroud or onto the shroud surface. Such a carcass shroud can be applied to a carcass in a dry state, i.e., without being wetted with brine prior to application. The porous nature of the sheet or film allows liquid water to pass through while the oleophilic nature of the material causes it to hug tightly to the warm fat of the carcass. The salt acts to bleach the surface of the carcass and the surfactant acts to draw blood from the carcass, substantially enhancing its appearance. After cooling, the shroud readily releases from the carcass and does not leave fibrous contamination, as do known shrouds.
