PEAI News: A Great Start for 2017 This year the Professional Embalmers’ Association of Ireland kick starts the year with the new face of its official website www. professionalembalmers.ie. Now everyone within both the industry and the public can get to know about their professional embalmers from any chosen county. We are also looking forward to an even more user-friendly format, which will be launched later this year. Our new website is regularly updated with the most current news within the industry. We aim to deliver timely and accurate information to all our members and to everyone within the industry. Our Facebook page also offers an easy point of contact. PEAI is an inclusive organisation serving the best interests of the deceased and the bereaved, the health and safety and continuous improvement of its members, and the funeral service sector as a whole.

PEAI 2017
Following a very successful year, we are proud to reaffirm our commitments to Families, Care of the Deceased, the Public, the Government and the Association. “Every member of the PEAI has a moral commitment to promote, participate and support the Professional Embalmers’ Association of Ireland in its mission to help all members enhance the quality of the embalming service to families.” The Professional Embalmers’ Association of Ireland are leaders and standard bearers in the embalming practice, both within Ireland and beyond. We wish to share our skills and knowledge to other embalming practitioners and extend it to everyone working in areas where death and funeral rituals and traditions impact people’s lives. We invest a lot of effort into research and communication in order to bring our members the most recent advancements and issues arising within the industry, not only in Ireland, but also around Europe and the U.S. This new year, we therefore wish to encourage all our members and interested individuals to avail of this opportunity to be a part of the PEAI’s pursuit to continuous education and standardisation of professional embalming practice. If you wish to receive information in relation to PEAI membership and other related enquiries, please visit our website: www.professionalembalmers.ie or email us at info@professionalembalmers.ie.
