Pursuing perfection since 1893
For more than a century, we have processed natural casings. Quality is at the core of our craftsmanship – and the source of our passion for perfection.
Everything we do is driven by passion, purpose and pride - from natural and artificial casings to innovative ingredient blends, global logistics, and our approach to sustainability.
It all started in 1893 when Schaub & Co, a casing company from Hamburg, established a small subsidiary in Esbjerg. In 1907, Schaub & Co established a department in Copenhagen. Schaub & Co was so successful that a group of cooperative slaughterhouses decided to establish their own casing company in 1913, named "Danske Andelsslagteriers Tarmsalg" (DAT). In 1921, Schaub & Co was transformed into a cooperative, where both Danish cooperative slaughterhouses and private slaughterhouses became shareholders and thus owners of the company. By 1934, Schaub & Co was one of the leading companies in the Meatpacking District in Copenhagen. After many years as competing companies, Schaub & Co and DAT merged in 1972, and DAT-Schaub was born.
Over the past century, the expansion continued, and DAT-Schaub achieved significant global growth and is one of the world's leading companies in sourcing, processing, storage, sales, and distribution of a wide range of products for the food industry. Today, our name is, therefore, on billions of meters of casings.

Timeline of DAT-Schaub
Schaub & Co
In 1893, Schaub & Co was founded in Esbjerg by a German casing company of the same name. After a few years, the Germans sold the business to Danish owners, and the small casing cleaning company grew into a large and well-established enterprise. In 1907, they also established a branch in Copenhagen for the sale of slaughterhouse by-products, casings, and meat.
