Cordas Natural Gut - TRIPA NATURAL

Separating the intestines for the good ribbons.

The ultra violet room is a quality control station. The ribbons are inspected for blemishes.

The ribbons are counted to determine the gauges and cut for length.

The ribbons are bundled and put in a salt solution. They are refrigerated for 30 days to get rid of bacteria.

The bundles go through a multi step washing to clean off the impurities. The bright lines in middle of image are a reflection from overhead lighting.

The ribbons are attached to a twisting machine to make into a set of Natural Gut.
