FAQ (visible on page)
Q1. What size embalming station do I need for a small prep room?
Most facilities choose a 48–60 in fixed station with an integrated sink and splash guard; add a compact water control console for temperature and flow.
Q2. What’s the benefit of a lift-assist / adjustable station?
Height adjustability helps fit different operators and reduces strain, supporting OSHA-aligned ergonomic practices during longer procedures.

Stainless steel with smooth, coved seams allows faster cleaning and durability in prep-room environments.
