Cremation is a dignified, eco-friendly alternative to traditional burial. The process involves the use of high-temperature flames to reduce the body to its basic elements, leaving behind a few pounds of ash, known as cremated remains.

  • Preparation: Our team will prepare your loved one with care and respect, ensuring they are presented in a dignified manner.
  • Cremation Chamber: The body is placed in a cremation chamber, where it is exposed to high temperatures, typically between 1400°C to 1800°C.
  • Cooling and Processing: After the cremation process, the remains are cooled and processed into a fine powder, known as cremated remains.
  • The cremated remains are returned to the family in an urn, which can be selected from our range of options or provided by the family.
