The global Mortuary Equipment Market size was valued at $863.8 million in 2021, and is projected to reach $1.6 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2022 to 2031. Mortuary equipment are used for proper handling of dead bodies to ensure proper investigation of the cause of death; they are most commonly used in medical research and for further disposal of the body. Mortuary equipment is used in facilities such as morgues and mortuaries. The difference between a morgue and a mortuary is that the latter is equipped in hospitals. The preservation of the deceased's bodies before they are sent to funeral homes or graves depends on the use of mortuary equipment. There are several types of mortuary equipment available in the market to transport or store human dead bodies such as trolleys, cadaver trays, dissecting tables, embalming workstations and racking systems, and refrigeration units, and freezers. Refrigeration units are the most widely used mortuary equipment that is used to store the dead bodies for a longer duration of time to conduct any legal proceedings such as postmortem.
