Environmental Coffins, Caskets, Shrouds and Urns

There are now a large variety of environmentally friendly coffins, caskets, shrouds and cremated remains caskets available.  Whilst previously these were premium priced there is now choice within all price bands.   At The Natural Burial Company we work with ecoffins who provide an exceptional range of eco friendly coffins and caskets, all of which we are able to supply (subject to availability).  Other providers are also available and a simple internet search will provide a number of companies.  We do recommend though that if you are purchasing a coffin or casket directly you use an accredited company who are able to provide evidence of standards and the load-bearing capabilities of their products.

If you are arranging a service through a funeral director we suggest that you ask regarding their range of eco-friendly coffins and caskets at your earliest opportunity.  We recommend that you request an estimate of costs as there can be a large variation in prices of green funeral services.  The majority of funeral directors now have prices on their website to help you make an informed decision.
