Eco-Coffins
Pandanus
Our Pandanus coffins are made in Indonesia in only World Fair Trade Organisation accredited workshops, making a real difference to the lives of the local people. The pandanus coffins are made from the leaves of a prolific growing plant, a provider of a highly renewable and sustainable material. The dried leaves are being twisted into cord using traditional methods, then woven and coiled around a natural cane framework. Rattan is also woven into the coffins’ design to create a striking lightweight contrast against the silvery colour of the Pandanus.
Bamboo
The Bamboo eco2 is made using a combination of soft bamboo and bamboo bark hand woven, using traditional methods, around a modern solid interior construction. As the fastest growing plant on the planet, Bamboo is a highly sustainable and renewable material and one of the most environmentally friendly. The Bamboo eco2 is a new take on our traditional bamboo coffins featuring a more decorative weave, along with rope handles and discreet lid fixings for greater functionality, to create a sleeker more modern looking coffin.
Willow
Our Cromer and Highsted Willow coffins are handcrafted from the sustainable willow using traditional methods. The willow is woven onto a self-supporting frame, which gives the coffins exceptional strength whilst at the same time remaining incredibly light. These coffins are manufactured in the EU using cottage industry methods, in which people work in their own homes to create these products. The round ended Cromer and the traditional shaped Highsted both come in two different colours (light and natural).
Pine & Bamboo
Our Pine casket is made from the sustainable pine, which has been grown under controlled conditions in the northern hemisphere. A solid casket with a smooth surface, unwaxed and untreated, allowing the natural grain to be seen at its best on the gently curved lid. The Pinboo casket is a combination of two renewable materials: The strong frame of a pine casket is covered with split smooth bamboo canes, giving it a soft wavy appearance. As this casket is produced in China under World Fair Trade Organisation guaranteed conditions, it provides local families with a secure and fair income.
