Biodegradable Urn for water or ground burial
Journey Earthurn is perfect for ocean or deep water burial and is accepted for Royal Navy Burials at sea. These biodegradable urns are engineered to float momentarily and then gracefully sink. Once on the ocean floor, the urn will break down naturally over time. Simplicity Earthurn is a simple and
durable urn that opens easily for scattering or it can be used as a biodegradable urn. Once buried the Simplicity Earthurn will biodegrade naturally. Earthurns are handmade using a centuries old paper making technique. The bark from the mulberry tree is harvested, leaving the tree alive and intact. After the bark is soaked, the resulting pulp is laid out on bamboo screens, often with floral material inlaid, and dried in the sun. Once dry the paper is used to create the beautiful and earth-friendly urns,which will break down in water or soil.
