A PE-coated fluid-resistant coverall with a hood for routine cases, and a DuPont Tychem 2000 coverall for formaldehyde splash, autopsied or decomposed cases.

Plan per decedent: decedents × handlers × units per handler, plus 20 to 30%. A 100-decedent plan with three handlers needs about 6,000 gloves and 750 coveralls.

At minimum: exam gloves (many embalmers double-glove or use an extended-cuff glove), a fluid-resistant coat or gown with closed cuffs, eye and face protection, and shoe covers or dedicated footwear. Add an impervious apron or sleeves for heavy fluid work and respiratory protection as your formaldehyde monitoring requires.

Both are the same three-layer SMS fabric with a snap front, knit collar and cuffs, and three pockets. The coat is knee-length for lap and thigh coverage; the jacket is hip-length for removals, dressing, casketing and work where a shorter cut moves more easily.

No. USPE exam gloves are sold by the case, one size per case, with one price for every size.

Most embalmers prefer a thicker glove with a longer cuff, such as the 15 mil high-risk latex or the 10 mil and 14 mil high-risk nitrile. Choose nitrile for staff with latex sensitivities.

The OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (29 CFR 1910.1030) and Formaldehyde Standard (29 CFR 1910.1048) require employers to provide PPE suited to the exposure at no cost to employees. Your exposure control plan and air monitoring determine the exact items.

Yes. Purchase orders are accepted from qualified funeral homes, institutions and agencies, and we provide W-9s and written quotes on request.

Operators load the vessel and handle hot, strongly alkaline solution during unloading and cleanout. Plan for chemical splash protection: a DuPont Tychem 2000 or 4000 coverall or Tychem sleeves, chemical-resistant gloves, and goggles with a face shield. Check DuPont permeation data for the chemical and concentration your system uses.

Staff place the body in a vessel with plant material and later unload and screen the finished soil. SMS or breathable microporous coveralls, nitrile exam gloves and embalming coats keep fluids and dust off clothing. Add eye and respiratory protection, such as N95 respirators, based on your exposure assessment.

Autopsy work brings heavy fluid contact and splatter. Most teams double-glove with extended-cuff, high-risk gloves and wear a fluid-resistant PE-coated or Tychem 2000 coverall, with sleeves, eye and face protection. The OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens standard requires employers to provide this PPE where exposure is expected.

Scenes can involve decomposition fluids and unknown hazards. Tychem 2000 or 4000 coveralls with hoods and boots, taped seams for wet work, and high-risk nitrile gloves cover most recoveries. A Tychem 10000 Level A suit is for hazmat scenes where vapor protection is required.

Retort work calls for heat protection: aluminized or leather crematory gloves, a reflective jacket or apron, a face shield and goggles. Add N95 or half-mask respirators for processing remains, and hearing protection near the processor.
