A cremation casket the right way to transport the remains of a person to the crematorium. If you are going to hold a funeral service, the casket can also be placed at the funeral home. When a person is being cremated, you need to ensure that the casket doesn’t have any screws, nails, or other metal parts. It also needs to be relatively rigid and leak-proof.

There are various cremation casket materials to choose from. Since the cremation casket will be incinerated with the remains, look for an eco-friendly material such as:

  • Wooden (oak/mahogany, among others)
  • Particleboard (an affordable casket material)
  • Cardboard
