Cadaver tissue is commonly "processed" and then used to make all kinds of medical devices. Bone and tendons are a common example for bone and joint reconstruction surgeries. I can't speak too much to Australia specifically, but because of laws like this in the US these supply chains are setup a specific wah. A good example is Allosource in Colorado. The donations are donations, in return the persons final expenses are taken care of. The company that does the processing and reselling is a non-profit. In this case no one person "sells" any part of their or other persons bodies, but the needed medical materials get to the OR.
