Rapid Mobilization: Our team is dispatched immediately in the hours preceding the legal notification of death.

Initial Stabilization: We begin cooling procedures using ice and perfusion agents to reduce deterioration.

Secure Transport: The body is transferred under strict temperature control to our laboratory or partner facilities.

Cryoprotectant Perfusion (vitrification) : Blood is replaced with a vitrification solution to protect cells from ice formation.

​Controlled Cooling: The body is gradually cooled to -196°C and placed in a cryogenic storage tank.
Throughout each step, our focus remains on dignity, precision, and deep respect for the person and their family.
