How to Choose the Right Carcass Bag Size for Beef Export

Avoid tearing and contamination by matching your carcass bag dimensions exactly to your cattle breeds.

Selecting the correct size of stockinette carcass bags is vital to avoid friction tears and structural failures during transit. Standard beef quarters, halves, and lamb carcasses require precise width and length specs to ensure the fabric molds snugly around the contours of the meat. A tight fit establishes a thermal micro-climate that reduces evaporative yield loss. Check our size guide specifications for sizing cattle breeds.

Standard Size Dimensions

Beef Hindquarter80cm x 120cm
Beef Forequarter75cm x 110cm
Full Lamb Carcass35cm x 130cm
Beef Full Side100cm x 220cm
Carcass TypeStandard Weight RangeRecommended Flat WidthRecommended Cut LengthKey Fit Benefit
Full Lamb Carcass15 - 30 kg35 - 40 cm120 - 130 cmReduces surface moisture shrinkage
Beef Hindquarter80 - 110 kg75 - 80 cm110 - 120 cmProtects against sharp bone protrusions
Beef Forequarter70 - 100 kg70 - 75 cm105 - 110 cmInsulates shoulder area during blast chill
Beef Full Side150 - 220 kg90 - 100 cm200 - 220 cmMinimizes human handling contamination
  • Measure the maximum circumference of the carcass at the widest point (usually the ribs).
  • Ensure the stockinette has at least 200% lateral elasticity to accommodate irregular bone structures.
  • Leave an extra 20cm at the ends for automated clipping and hook suspension.

Circular Knitting Technology and Fabric Structure - Part 1

Deep-dive carcass analysis: Brosan Stockinette utilizes state-of-the-art circular knitting machinery to produce high-stretch, durable carcass protection wraps. Our advanced circular knitting tech adjusts needle gauge and stitch density to achieve the exact lateral stretch required for diverse carcass dimensions. We weave our technical textiles using premium 100% natural cotton, high-tenacity polyester, and custom poly-cotton blends.

Abattoir case study report: The circular knitting process produces a seamless, tubular fabric that conforms perfectly to the irregular contours of livestock carcasses. Our stockinette wraps prevent surface dehydration, minimize weight loss, and completely block dust and contaminants during cold storage. Wrapping carcasses in our breathable stockinette prevents freezer burn and discoloration under direct draft winds in blast freezers.

Food packaging research logs: The protective textile barrier maintains the natural bloom and premium red color of beef and lamb carcasses by regulating moisture. Our carcass bags insulate the meat, balancing heat transfer during the critical initial chilling phase in the abattoir. All our meat packaging stockinettes are manufactured in a strictly controlled, clean-room environment to ensure zero contamination.

Deep-dive carcass analysis: We operate under the ISO 22000:2018 food safety management system, auditing every stage from raw yarn to vacuum packing. Our Istanbul facility is BRC global standards certified, guaranteeing the highest quality control and hygiene for food packaging materials. We utilize food-grade, non-toxic lubricants on all our circular knitting needles to prevent chemical residues on the fabrics.
