The Rise of Water Cremation in the USA

The funeral industry is experiencing a once-in-a-generation transformation. As families demand eco-friendly, sustainable alternatives to flame cremation and traditional burial, water cremation (alkaline hydrolysis) has emerged as a trusted, dignified, and environmentally responsible solution.

Also called alkaline hydrolysis, water cremation uses a water-based alkaline process to return remains to the earth naturally. This method uses roughly 90% less energy than flame cremation and avoids harmful greenhouse gas emissions.

But with new laws and growing adoption, funeral homes, hospitals, and universities face an urgent challenge: how to equip facilities properly for compliance, safety, and efficiency.

That's where American Mortuary Coolers comes in.

👉 Call 1-888-792-9315 or email cool@mymortuarycooler.com today for trusted guidance, same-day shipping, and OSHA-compliant water cremation-ready systems.

What Is Water Cremation?

  • Also known as alkaline hydrolysis or bio-cremation.
  • Legal in a majority of U.S. states, with more states considering adoption.
  • Uses heated water and an alkaline solution to reduce remains to bone ash, which is returned to the family, similar to cremated remains.
  • Leaves no direct emissions, making it one of the most sustainable disposition methods available.

Why Water Cremation Facilities Need Trusted Equipment

Even in states where water cremation is legal, facilities are still required to comply with:

  • OSHA safety standards for staff and operations.
  • State inspection requirements for refrigeration, storage, and safe handling.

That means every water cremation facility needs to maintain:

  • Mortuary Coolers – OSHA-compliant upright, roll-in, and walk-in units.
  • Embalming & Dressing Tables – Hydraulic, ADA-friendly stainless steel tables.
  • Lifts & Stretchers – Ergonomic handling systems.
  • Storage Racks – Multi-tier systems for efficient cooler management.
  • Mobile Solutions – Disaster-ready trailers and overflow refrigeration.

At American Mortuary Coolers, we supply these essential solutions in stock, ready to ship nationwide.
