The EUTHABAG Pet Body Bag

EUTHABAG is a pet body bag designed for the identification, handling and transportation of an animal’s body after death, until cremation or burial.

The bag should be laid flat before the animal is placed inside. It can then be closed and transported using the integrated handles. For detailed instructions, please consult the user guide.

EUTHABAG is designed for single use. Although reuse may technically be possible after washing, the bag cannot be guaranteed for multiple uses. Single use also avoids the logistics involved in washing, drying and handling the bag after use.

Yes. EUTHABAG contains no chlorinated compounds and therefore does not produce dioxins or furans during incineration. It also burns more efficiently than conventional plastic bags.

Yes, wherever burial is permitted under local regulations. When buried, the bag may remain intact for several years while allowing insects involved in decomposition to access the remains through small openings and support the natural decomposition process.

Before burying an animal, always verify the laws and regulations that apply in your area.

EUTHABAG can be used to transport the animal to a facility offering aquamation. However, the bag will remain almost entirely intact after the process. Following transportation, it may be washed and sent for recycling, depending on the provider’s practices.

EUTHABAG is not presented as a bag that will biodegrade in the short term. This choice reflects the durability, leak protection and safety requirements involved in caring for an animal’s body after death.

The priority is to contain the remains securely, particularly if the burial site is intentionally or accidentally disturbed by a person or another animal.

A biodegradable material does not necessarily meet the strength and safety requirements of post-mortem care. Animal remains may also pose a risk to wildlife, particularly when the animal was euthanized using pentobarbital.

EUTHABAG instead uses a post-consumer recycled material that contains no heavy metals that could contaminate the soil. This provides a durable, secure and more responsible alternative to conventional plastic bags.

EUTHABAG is made from post-consumer recycled material selected for its durability, leak protection and absence of heavy metals that could contaminate the soil.

EUTHABAG can be included in the cost of end-of-life services, just like other medical supplies used by veterinary practices. For a small portion of the overall cost of euthanasia and body aftercare, it adds meaningful value to the experience provided to families without complicating the facility’s existing protocols.
