Sustainability
- Our eco-friendly caskets are crafted by skilled weavers as a small cottage industry, not in factories. They are created from sustainable materials such as fast-growing willow, seagrass or bamboo which don’t require heavy machinery for harvesting, giving these funeral products a small carbon footprint. Burial of these caskets also help reduce your own carbon footprint, as most caskets you find at the funeral home feature metal components and/or heavy chemical finishes.
