Eco-friendly coffins, caskets and shrouds
We proudly offer a wide range of coffins, caskets, and shrouds to our families. This includes coffins and caskets sourced from sustainably produced timbers, eco-board, and wicker. Choosing an eco-friendly coffin or casket can significantly reduce the environmental impact of the funeral service, allowing us to honour your loved one while honouring the Earth.
A Natural Burial
We receive many inquiries regarding options for a green burial. We are fortunate to have Australia’s first natural burial ground established in the Lismore Shire at the Bushland Cemetery, Goonellabah. This beautiful, nature environment of open sunny spaces interspersed by tall eucalyptus trees, provides the opportunity to lay your person to rest in a landscape that has minimal human impact.
The Far North Coast of NSW is a national forerunner in natural burial grounds with new sites under consideration for Byron and Tweed Shires.
Choosing a natural burial in NSW is a meaningful way to connect with nature and leave a lasting legacy of environmental responsibility.
Sustainable cremations
We encourage all families to consider the use of sustainable bio-board and wicker caskets or coffins for cremation. This reduces the environmental footprint of your funeral service and truly enables us to leave the Earth lightly. Our eco-conscious approach extends to every aspect of the funeral process.
