Product FAQs
Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) is a unique, synthetic water-soluble polymer. Unlike standard transport bags, the Classic PVA bag is designed specifically to dissolve completely without leaving a trace of plastic residue behind.
When exposed to the liquid flow, alkaline chemicals (potassium or sodium hydroxide), and elevated heat inside a resomation vessel, the chemical bonds of the PVA film rupture. It safely breaks down along with the decedent’s organic tissues, leaving only clean mineral bone ash and a sterile effluent liquid.

Yes. Sealed and sewn construction contains fluids during handling and transport.
Each bag is individually bagged, then boxed 50 per case.
It dramatically lowers their environmental footprint while optimizing workflow. Because the bag is completely chlorine-free and PVC-free, it generates zero airborne pollutants and requires far less machine fuel to process than flame-based cremation cycles.
Furthermore, having an option between a robust Single #10 C-Zipper closure or a fast-sealing adhesive track allows technicians to prepare both human and pet remains cleanly without altering their standard bio-security protocols.
