Mummifying Alan: Egypt's Last Secret

LEEC were approached over a year ago by Blink Films who had recently visited the Sheffield Medico Legal Centre, a specialist Coroners unit whose mortuary was fitted out with Leec's equipment some 33 years ago and which now contains a Home Office Forensic Mortuary Facility, designed, equipped and built by Leec in 2008/09.
It was therefore on the recommendation of staff, that Blink Films approached Leec about their proposed scientific experiment.
Leec, specialising in the manufacture of bespoke Laboratory and Mortuary equipment were very excited about the opportunity to work with both Blink Films and Dr Stephen Buckley on the Mummification experiment.
Leec were asked to produce a custom designed body tank in which Alan could be submerged and also a temperature/humidity room.
Leec, using the knowledge and experience gained over the years to produce equipment to customer's specific standards and specification; where pleased to produce equipment that meet and exceeded the expectation of both the scientists and Blink Films.
