• Ease of movement: the 4 swivel wheels allow for easy movement even in tight spaces and hospital corridors, reducing the physical effort of operators.
• Stability during transport: the lipped structure of the tray and the robust stainless steel frame guarantee the absence of oscillations and accidental fluid spills.
• Simplified sanitization: the stainless steel materials and smooth finish allow for quick cleaning and disinfection according to health protocols, essential for medical environments.
• Adequate load capacity: the 200 kg capacity meets standard handling needs, ensuring an operational safety margin.
• Reliable braking: brakes on all wheels allow the trolley to be locked during loading, unloading, and positioning, increasing safety.
• Operational flexibility: the possibility of inserting a drainage element (optional) adapts the trolley to different funeral or healthcare procedures and protocols.

The body transport trolley stretcher finds primary application in hospitals and healthcare facilities, where it facilitates the internal transport of bodies to mortuaries or preparation areas. It is also used by funeral transport agencies for movement within reception rooms, preparation laboratories, and during transport between locations.

In hospitals, it supports staff in handling tasks while respecting hygienic and safety protocols. In funeral facilities, it ensures smooth operation consistent with the required dignity. The compact design (800 mm height) allows for use in environments with limited space, narrow elevators, and standard corridors.

Choosing this trolley stretcher means opting for equipment that combines construction reliability, sanitizability, and operational practicality. It is the correct solution when it is necessary to guarantee stable handling and dignity during operations, in environments where hygienic compliance is non-negotiable.

It is particularly suitable for facilities operating with high handling volumes, where the robustness of stainless steel reduces maintenance costs compared to alternative solutions. The wheel brakes and lipped tray eliminate concerns regarding accidental movements or fluid dispersion, critical aspects in medical and funeral contexts.

The 200 kg load capacity offers a standard safety margin without involving excessive self-weight (42 kg), maintaining practicality in daily handling.

What is the difference between this stretcher and a generic medical transport trolley?

This stretcher is specifically designed for handling bodies, with a lipped tray to contain fluids and embalming materials, and optimized internal spaces (1965 x 660 mm) for accommodation. Generic trolleys lack the lipped structure and do not guarantee the same level of sanitizability required in funeral and medical contexts.

What hygiene certifications/health regulations does this product cover?

The product is made of stainless steel compliant with corrosion resistance and sanitizability standards required in healthcare environments. It is recommended to check with the supplier for compliance with specific local regulations (funeral regulations, local health protocols) and the recommended disinfection procedures for hospitals and funeral agencies.

Is it possible to drain fluids from the tray during use?

The tray does not include an integrated drainage element, but the design is compatible with the insertion of an optional drainage element (not provided). This allows the trolley to be adapted to different operational procedures based on the facility’s needs.

What are the recommended procedures for cleaning and disinfection?

The wide spaces and smooth stainless steel finish facilitate cleaning with water and specific detergents. The lipped tray avoids accumulation in corners. It is always advisable to follow local hygiene protocols and the guidelines of the hospital or funeral agency for disinfection.

Are the wheels suitable for transport on uneven surfaces?

The 4 swivel wheels ø200 mm are designed for predominantly internal use in controlled environments (hospitals, funeral facilities). They are not suitable for external transport on very uneven surfaces. The brakes allow the trolley to be locked on flat and stable floors.
