Embalming Room Equipment Planner™
The right equipment in your embalming room transforms a difficult job into a professional, efficient, and dignified operation. The wrong equipment — poorly sized, poorly positioned, or approaching the end of its service life — creates daily friction that costs your staff time and energy on every case. The Embalming Room Equipment Planner™ by American Mortuary Coolers provides a systematic approach to assessing, selecting, and acquiring the equipment your preparation room truly needs.
Embalming Room Equipment Checklist
A fully equipped embalming room requires: primary embalming table (hydraulic or fixed), secondary/folding preparation surface, body lift or transfer assist device, mortuary cot or transfer board for cooler-to-table transfer, embalming machine with supply cart, instrument set and organization system, chemical storage cabinet, body block set and positioning accessories, drainage hardware and connections, personal protective equipment storage, and cleaning and sanitation supplies and equipment.
Embalming Room Equipment Solutions
Primary Embalming Tables
American Mortuary Coolers supplies hydraulic and fixed embalming tables in standard and bariatric widths. Our hydraulic tables provide height adjustability from approximately 27 to 37 inches, accommodating the working postures of staff of all heights for all case types.
Body Lift Systems
Hydraulic portable body lifts and ceiling-mounted lift systems provide safe, controlled transfer between the mortuary cot and embalming table. For high-volume operations or facilities with a significant bariatric case proportion, lift equipment is essential protective infrastructure for staff.
Instrument and Supply Organization
Properly organized instruments, chemicals, and supplies reduce preparation time per case and minimize the risk of contamination events from disorganized storage. American Mortuary Coolers supplies preparation room storage solutions as part of complete equipment packages.
PPE Storage and Dispensing
Gloves, gowns, face shields, and respiratory protection must be stored at the point of use in the preparation room. Proper PPE storage infrastructure is an OSHA compliance requirement and a practical necessity for staff safety.
Equipment Replacement Planning
Embalming room equipment has defined service lives. Planning for replacement before failure is far more cost-effective than emergency procurement. Build a replacement schedule for each piece of equipment based on its age, condition, and expected service life — and budget for systematic replacement rather than reactive repair.
