The Ecopod is a beautifully designed coffin that brings together artisan skills with style, elegance and a respect for the environment.
Made by hand from recycled newspapers and finished with paper made from recycled silk and mulberry leaves, the Ecopod is available in a range of colours with and without screen printed motifs, plain white, or gold.
The Ecopod is suitable for cremation, or burial in woodland sites or traditional cemeteries, and biodegrades naturally over time when placed in the ground. Strong and light the Ecopod weighs approximately 18 kilos.
