Environmentally friendly deceased preparation
The truly green approach to deceased preparation
Andrew Malcolm
Andrew, Managing Director of the Kapiti Coast Funeral Home developed ecoprep in 2008 as a natural alternative to embalming, As inquiries for more natural preparations of the deceased skyrocketed and there was nothing available on the market to use
ecoprep
This is …
not a new chemical
not a new product
not a replacement
for embalming
it is a technique.
A technique offering a choice
between embalming and nothing.
A technique allows a natural
and toxin-free return to nature.
dry ice prep
Body preservation
A technique offering the ability to take the deceased home for a short time without embalming.
We believe in
eco principals
and having as small a footprint as possible on this planet, but not all caskets are made in environmentally sustainable ways
Be kind to the Earth in Life, be gentle in Death
In New Zealand, wood is the most sustainable as it is a plantation product
