What Service We Offer
Aquamation® is the better, gentler alternative for the body and our planet.
Why choose Aquamation® ?
No direct emissions.
Many flame cremations burn fossil fuels, which create significant pollution and can emit harmful substances like carbon monoxide, particulates (PM10 and PM2.5), and heavy metals including mercury, lead and cadmium. Aquamation® does not have the same problems. It uses only water, heat, and a small amount of an alkaline solution, powered by electricity, with no direct emissions, making it the most eco-friendly funerals.
Less energy use.
Aquamation® uses less than 10% of the energy of a traditional fire cremation, which significantly reduces emissions, and is significantly more efficient compared to a gas, LPG, or diesel-fired cremation.
When coupled with electricity from a renewable source, the Aquamation® process can be almost entirely carbon-neutral.
Fewer procedures.
Unlike flame cremation or burial, the gentle nature of the Aquamation® process means that medical devices such as pacemakers, implants, or jewellery do not need to be removed from the body before the process through invasive mortuary procedures. These can be gathered once the process is complete - maintaining dignity and respect for the body after death.
