Funeral Directors.
Welcome to Earth Friendly Cocoons - your partner in delivering environmentally conscious burial options to families.
As funeral directors, you have the unique opportunity to support and encourage your clients in considering biodegradable cocoons as a meaningful alternative for their loved ones' final resting place. Based in Hawke's Bay, we specialise in creating beautifully designed, handcrafted cocoons that are both unique and eco-friendly.
Today, families in New Zealand and around the world are increasingly seeking natural burial options, and this growing demand is driving a wave of change. As funeral directors, you play a crucial role in adopting greener practices, and we are here to help you every step of the way.
Advocates of greener burials believe that people find comfort in knowing that their ashes will return to the natural cycle of nature. By embracing biodegradable cocoons, families can actively reduce their carbon footprint, protect the environment, and even contribute to our ecosystem by choosing to plant a tree in place of a traditional headstone.
Choosing Earth Friendly Cocoons as your supplier brings numerous benefits to your funeral home. By offering earth-friendly burial options, you strengthen relationships with local families and demonstrate your commitment to their values. Additionally, your involvement in environmental burial practices not only fulfils the increasing demand to care for our earth but also opens up opportunities for positive engagement with your local media. Moreover, by promoting discussions around cremation burials, you become a catalyst for change in the industry.
Educating families about tangible, handcrafted, and unique burial options rather than plastic or metal alternatives is a source of pride.
