American Mortuary Coolers vs. Bally Refrigerated Boxes – Why We Are the Leader in Mortuary Refrigeration

Mortuary Refrigeration Demands More than Generic Boxes

When it comes to refrigeration, Bally Refrigerated Boxes is a known name for walk-in coolers and freezers used in restaurants, warehouses, and grocery stores. But for mortuary science, where cadaver storage requires precision, safety, and compliance, generic refrigerated boxes are not enough.

American Mortuary Coolers (AMC) is the true manufacturer of mortuary-specific refrigeration, providing walk-in mortuary coolers, cadaver freezers, and morgue refrigeration systems that outperform Bally in every category.


Why Mortuary Coolers Are Different

Unlike food storage, cadaver storage refrigeration must meet specific requirements:

  • Stable temperature ranges (34°F–38°F).

  • Custom body storage racks for 2–20+ cadavers.

  • Oversized/bariatric options for obese cadavers.

  • OSHA and CDC compliance for workplace safety.

  • Hygienic stainless steel interiors for disinfection.

Bally focuses on food and beverage storage. AMC builds dedicated mortuary refrigeration engineered for the needs of funeral directors, hospitals, universities, and morgues.


American Mortuary Coolers – Specialization Makes the Difference

AMC is not a general refrigeration company. We specialize exclusively in mortuary science. That means every cooler is:

  • Built for cadaver storage, not food.

  • Designed with body racks, trays, and roll-in carts.

  • Fully customizable to facility size and capacity needs.

  • Manufactured with premium stainless steel interiors.

  • Engineered for decades of daily use.

This makes AMC mortuary coolers more durable, professional, and compliant than Bally refrigerated boxes.


Mortuary Cooler Models by AMC

  • 2 Body Roll-In Cooler (Model 2000-2BX-C) – Compact, perfect for funeral homes.

  • 3 Body Upright Cooler (Model 2000-3BX-C) – Space-efficient upright design.

  • 4 Body Upright Cooler – 2 Door (Model 2000-4B2D) – Mid-size morgue solution.

  • 10x12 Walk-In Mortuary Cooler (Model 2000-1012) – For hospitals and universities.

  • 6 Bay Vault-Style Cooler (Model 1070-3MB6) – High-capacity morgue storage.

  • Oversized Bariatric Coolers – Extra-wide models for obese cadavers.

Bally offers none of these mortuary-specific designs.

Why AMC Outperforms Bally

  1. Specialization in Mortuary Science

    • Bally = food industry focus.

    • AMC = mortuary, forensic, pathology focus.

  2. Durable Stainless Steel Interiors

    • AMC uses 304 stainless steel — hygienic and easy to disinfect.

    • Bally often uses aluminum or coated panels prone to wear.

  3. Custom Body Storage

    • AMC includes racks, trays, and roll-in storage systems.

    • Bally does not.

  4. Oversized Cadaver Solutions

    • AMC manufactures bariatric coolers up to 1,000+ lbs capacity.

    • Bally does not specialize in oversized cadaver storage.

  5. Compliance with OSHA/CDC

    • AMC ensures safety and compliance in mortuary operations.

    • Bally refrigeration is not built for cadaver handling standards.


Beyond Coolers: AMC’s Complete Mortuary Equipment Line

Unlike Bally, AMC is a full-service mortuary manufacturer. We also build:

  • Cadaver lifts and body handling systems.

  • Mortuary stretchers and first-call cots.

  • Embalming tables and hydraulic autopsy tables.

  • Pathology grossing stations.

  • Body storage racks and shelving.

This makes AMC the one-stop solution for funeral homes, morgues, hospitals, and universities.

  • Thick insulation panels for efficiency.

  • Premium refrigeration units built for continuous use.

  • Heavy-duty doors and latches.

  • Polished stainless interiors that resist rust, bacteria, and chemical cleaners.

Compared to Bally, which builds for commercial food storage, AMC builds coolers for continuous mortuary operations.


Packaging & Shipping

AMC ensures safe delivery:

  • Knock-down panels for freight savings.

  • Pre-assembled smaller units available.

  • Crated and palletized for protection.

  • Installation manuals and technical support.

  • County Morgues – Vault-style coolers for high volume.

  • Forensic Centers – Secure cadaver storage.

  • Mortuary-specific design with racks, trays, and bariatric options.

  • Premium stainless steel interiors for hygiene and durability.

  • Custom-built solutions for every facility size.
