The Enviro coffin or casket is the perfect choice for people who cared about the environment while they were alive, and want to minimize their impact on the environment in death.

The coffin and casket are left 'raw'
and are completely free of laquer, paint and stain. The glue used in the manufacture of The Enviro is an EO water based adhesive. It is lined with unbleached calico and the plastic-like material lining the base is a natural and
compostable product made from a
non food vegetable extract.
To secure the lid, four simple wooden dowels are used instead of the usual plastic or metal thumbscrews. Six sisal rope handles made of natural fibres replace the more traditional plastic or metal handles.
The Enviro is suitable for cremation and burial and has been approved
for use in Natural Burial Cemeteries.
