What is the name of a gasket-sealed container that can serve as an insert into a casket or a separate shipping container?

The term for a gasket-sealed container that can serve as an insert into a casket or function as a separate shipping container is a Ziegler Case. This case is specifically designed to maintain a protective environment for the deceased while providing an extra layer of security during transport. The gasket seal ensures that air and moisture cannot penetrate, which is crucial for preserving the integrity of the remains. This makes it particularly valuable for shipping purposes, as it complies with certain regulatory requirements for the transport of human remains.

In contrast, a casket is typically the final resting place for the deceased during a viewing or funeral service but does not serve as a separate shipping container. A vault provides additional protection and can be placed in the ground to encase a casket, but it does not function as a transport container. An urn is designed to hold cremated remains, but it lacks the features needed for transport of a body or remains in the same manner as a Ziegler Case.
