Our Full Body Burial Shroud is the perfect choice for a natural burial or eco-friendly cremation. Made from 100% biodegradable bamboo, a sustainably produced material that has minimal environmental impact when buried or cremated.
These burial shrouds can be used as an eco-friendly and unique alternative to clothing for use in one of our natural caskets, or used in conjunction with the Willow Carrier. To simplify the movement and transport of a shrouded body, we recommend using our Willow Carrier (sold separately) with all shrouded burials or cremations.
The shroud with handles can be used entirely on its own. A sewn-in pouch allows a rigid board to be inserted under the shroud to provide support for the body if a casket or willow carrier is not being used. Board is not included; we suggest getting a 1/2" board at a local hardware store cut at 22" wide and 5' to 6'5" long depending on the height of the individual. When you are not using a casket or carrier, we advise choosing the shroud with handles to help carry the body.
