A range of designs and styles to suit all requirements
An ideal choice for alternative funerals
Some families may wish to have their loved one brought to the ceremony in a non-traditional coffin, one that reflects their beliefs or preferences better.
We stock a wide range of alternative designs and styles, which can be added to any funeral package for an additional cost. We also have more traditional designs available.
Modern coffin designs are becoming a more popular choice for families that would like an alternative or more eco-friendly funeral. View our selection below and get in touch with our team today.
Why consider a modern coffin?
The Painted Expressions
An oak veneer style coffin fitted with a double moulded raised lid. The coffin can be finished with any colour. (Picture shows red)
The Old English Oak
This coffin is detailed with solid oak reeded mouldings and solid maple load-bearing bar handles, ensuring quality and security. Each coffin is decorated with a book for personalised wording. The maple handles compliment the pearlescent colour of the book beautifully.
The Grey Wool
This coffin is made in Yorkshire using pure new wool, supported on a strong recycled cardboard frame. Wool is a fibre with a true “green” lineage that is both sustainable and biodegradable.
Willow Eco Coffin
Hand woven, natural willow coffin with a rounded end casket shape.
Daisy Bamboo
Traditional in its shape, this coffin is created with a strong internal wooden frame and hand woven bamboo outer panels. Comes with a natural unbleached calico lining.
The Pathway
With Pathway each panel can be designed separately with a different image or theme. Each panel can be designed by a different family member or branch of the family.
Or designed together using panels for different periods and pastimes of a person’s life. These could be pictures of family or happy times. The chalkboard or whiteboard lid is for you to write messages and memories.
Personalised Picture Coffin
Working with our coffin provider we can help you choose a coffin with an image which best describes and illustrates your loved one’s life. Some examples include golf clubs, trains, football, sailing, gardening, or a variety of animals and household pets.
Cardboard Coffin
These eco-friendly cardboard coffins are an alternative to a wooden veneered or fabric coffin. These are made of high quality corrugated cardboard. Very eco-friendly whilst still being very dignified and practical.
