Fanprobe, LLC was born from real life experience.
Fanprobe® was founded out of firsthand experience in the funeral profession. For over 14 years, our team worked in the prep room of a busy funeral home serving nearly 30 families each week. We saw how quickly staff could become overwhelmed by the physical and time demands of preparation and casketing.
That insight led to the creation of the Mortuary Balancing Bar™…a tool designed to function like an extra set of hands, streamlining workflow and reducing strain without adding staff costs.
Today, Fanprobe continues that mission by developing practical, innovative tools that address the real challenges funeral professionals face every day. Our focus is simple, efficient, and impactful solutions built to make the work safer, faster, and more effective.

-
Challenge: Rigid limbs or delicate post-mortem conditions (e.g., fragility, bloating, or decomposition) can make it difficult to maneuver the body.
Impact: Increases the physical strain on staff and the risk of damaging clothing or disturbing cosmetic work.
-
Challenge: Replacing or fitting garments over a body without removing previously applied cosmetics, IV lines, or dressings.
Impact: Requires careful handling and precision, especially with tight-fitting or formal clothing.
-
Challenge: Off-the-rack clothing may not fit properly due to posture changes after death, edema, or rigor mortis.
Impact: Leads to the need for alterations, cutting, or tucking garments to achieve a natural look.
-
Challenge: Decomposed, burned, or trauma-affected bodies may not be stable enough to dress traditionally.
Impact: Requires alternative techniques or specially designed garments.
-
Challenge: Dressing requires lifting, rotating, or repositioning, which is difficult without help or equipment.
Impact: Increases injury risk to staff and the chance of presentation errors.
-
Challenge: Limited time windows for preparation, especially with back-to-back services or decomposing remains.
Impact: Adds pressure and may compromise attention to detail.
-
Challenge: Exposure to bodily fluids or contagious conditions during dressing.
Impact: Requires full PPE, sanitization protocols, and special handling procedures.
