CadSeal Mortuary Repatriation System | Various Options

CadSeal repatriation foil seals the deceased in a special metal containment foil and is extensively used for repatriation and hygiene sealing. Many hospitals, local authorities and funeral directors utilise CadSeal for potentially contaminated deceased, as well as on standby for mass fatality incidents.

CadSeal is hermetically sealed, this ensures everything stays within the bag. Furthermore, CadSeal seals up odours which is particularly important if the number of deceased exceeds the capacity of refrigeration.

Benefits

1. Hygiene Sealing

Used during the Ebola crisis, CadSeal is a proven body containment product that creates an airtight seal around infected bodies and reduces the risk to staff.

CadSeal repatriation foil can be cremated, therefore an infected deceased can be placed into a coffin and a funeral conducted without any risk to funeral staff or the public during the ceremony.

CadSeal also stops odours escaping which is ideal for decomposed bodies. This assists in emergency situations where there is no refrigeration available.

2. Repatriation

Historically, the deceased were repatriated in zinc-lined coffins which are expensive and due to their weight, incur high freight costs. CadSeal repatriation foil only weighs 840g and is at least 18kg lighter. The CadSeal method of repatriating bodies is fully approved and detailed in the IATA Airport Handling Manual, AHM 333 (January 2011).

Note: Most countries accept CadSeal metal film as an alternative to zinc lined coffins - please check with each local authority.

3. Ease of Use

The deceased is placed inside the CadSeal foil envelope and the heat sealer is simply used to form a seal around the deceased.

CadSeal repatriation foil is:

• Airtight and watertight
• Tearproof and flexible
• Easy to X-ray
• Simple to seal
• Quick to open
• Foil is supplied in a cardboard box and can easily be cut to size with scissors or the CadSeal dispenser cutter.

CadSeal rolls are supplied in two sizes so storage is simple. For larger size rolls, the optional CadSeal roll dispenser is recommended due to the manual handling implications presented by the weight of the roll.
