Why we love Aquamation
Aquamation is a water-based cremation option that produces no greenhouse gas emissions and returns 20-40% more ash.
Aquamation uses warm water, time, and alkali to mimic nature’s end of life process. This process takes years in nature. With the advancement in aquamation technology, this process now takes less than 20 hours.
No burning of fossil fuels or direct emissions of harmful greenhouse gases.
More gentle than flame-based cremation.
Over 90% energy savings when compared to flame-based cremation.
20% more ashes returned to family.
Every flame-based cremation releases 500 lbs of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere which is the equivalent of driving 600 miles.
