The traditional formalin-based embalming creates an unrealistic cadaver. Formalin also irritant and carcinogen. To tackle these issues, our formalin free embalming solutions use common chemicals to create more realistic cadaver. The cadavers provide better learning experience for anatomical and surgical practise and lessens the health and environmental impact of cadaver preservation.
