Traditional flame cremation can use excess energy and pollute the air. At our energy-efficient crematorium, we practice clean flame cremation. Energy is saved throughout the process, and we take extra measures to ensure no plastics are incinerated to reduce airborne toxins.
Texas is one of 19 states to approve the use of water cremation, also known as aquamation. It’s the greenest end of life service available today. We use a water/alkali solution with elevated heat to naturally decompose without the use of flame. No toxins are released into the air and 90% less energy is used compared to traditional cremation.
Natural burial is an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional burial that supports the conservation of natural resources. This kind of burial gives families the opportunity to surround their loved ones with a natural beauty to honor their departing journey. It often involves burying the person in a biodegradable container or shroud, free from embalming fluids, and limits the use of metal and concrete, thus leaving only a minimal impact on the environment.
Natural organic reduction is an innovative and environmentally friendly disposition. It is a process that breaks down organic material into nutrient-rich compost by using natural microorganisms present in the environment.
