Our Range of Coffins

We understand that each family has different preferences when it comes to selecting a coffin. At Barthram Funeral Service, we offer a wide range of options, from traditional to contemporary, simple to ornate, and eco-friendly designs. Some of our most popular categories include:

• Traditional Wooden Coffins: These classic coffins are made from high-quality woods like oak, mahogany, and pine. They are crafted with attention to detail, providing a timeless and elegant look. Many families choose wooden coffins for their durability and aesthetic appeal, which often includes intricate carvings or polished finishes.

• Eco-Friendly Coffins: For those who are conscious of their environmental impact, we offer a selection of eco-friendly coffins made from sustainable materials such as wicker, bamboo, and recycled cardboard. These coffins are not only biodegradable, but they also provide a simple, natural beauty that many families appreciate. As part of our commitment to sustainability, Barthram Funeral Service is proud to offer green funeral options that align with the values of environmentally conscious clients.

• Personalized Coffins: At Barthram Funeral Service, we believe that every person deserves a funeral as unique as they are. That’s why we offer personalised coffin options that can be tailored to reflect the individual’s life, hobbies, or favorite colors. From coffins adorned with images to custom-painted designs, we can help families create something truly special that celebrates their loved one’s personality and interests.

• Metal Coffins: For families seeking a modern, sleek option, we provide metal coffins in a range of finishes including bronze, copper, and stainless steel. These coffins are known for their strength and durability, often chosen for their ability to preserve the body for longer periods. They can also be adorned with decorative features, ensuring they meet both practical and aesthetic needs.
