1 min read


A hydraulic embalming table is the centerpiece of most prep rooms — height-adjustable, stainless, and built to handle the drainage and washdown demands of daily embalming work.

Why hydraulic height adjustment matters

Foot-pump hydraulic lift lets staff position the table at the right working height for the procedure and for their own ergonomics, reducing strain during extended prep work.

Stainless construction

Stainless steel resists corrosion from embalming fluid and repeated disinfection — the standard material for any surface in continuous contact with prep-room chemicals.
