Why Fireless Cremation®
The future of cremation doesn't have to look like the past.
For more than a century, flame-based cremation has been the standard. Fireless Cremation® gives funeral professionals another choice.
Our advanced water cremation technology uses alkaline hydrolysis instead of combustion. It operates at dramatically lower temperatures and eliminates the flame, smoke and refractory maintenance of traditional cremation.
The result is a modern disposition option that helps funeral homes respond to changing family preferences—and sets them apart in their market.
