Religious and cultural beliefs play an important role in market growth.

Funeral traditions vary around the world, and so do the requirements for mortuaries. For example, Islam follows the tradition of burying the dead, but instead of placing the body in a morgue, the last rites are performed as soon as possible. Populations of other religions, including Hinduism and Buddhism, traditionally cremate their dead, which requires minimal use of morgues. Christians traditionally bury their dead and ask the mortuary to store the bodies until arrangements are made.

The main processes in a morgue include storage, autopsy, embalming, and other anatomical procedures.

Autopsies are a major procedure performed in mortuaries and the demand for these funeral equipment is expected to increase with the number of mortuaries and hospitals.

Generally, funeral homes do not perform autopsies, but they can sometimes be performed at a funeral home if there is no local coroner’s office.

Probably the only thing a funeral home needs is a table like this.-Autopsy table

Usually, the autopsy table is made of stainless steel/surgical grade steel because it keeps the body cool and is easy to keep sterile. The table is essential to the mortician because it’s where almost everything happens — embalming, dressing the body, applying makeup and performing autopsies.

Typically, these tables usually have one end so that any blood or fluid can be easily drained during the autopsy and embalming process. They also often come with a water cannon to help clean the table and can be fitted with an anticorrosive tube to ensure the table lasts. You must acquire this equipment to run the mortuary efficiently. The device helps streamline mortuary procedures, helping staff and mourners.

With the improvement of the technical level of autopsy equipment, the traditional autopsy equipment has been replaced by advanced equipment. On the other hand, the use of embalming fluids and platforms is expected to decline over time, as most people, even Christians, have come to prefer cremation over burial to reduce the costs incurred in performing the last rites.

The funeral industry involves a variety of service and equipment providers, and we are constantly evolving to help provide affordable funeral services and memorable experiences.
