Title
GREEN-BURIAL ECO-COFFINS & ECO-CASKETS IN SOLID PINE
Description
After almost two years of research and development, Folkestone based Kent Casket Industries (KCI) came to the market in 1999 with a range of self-assembly coffins and caskets; the components are factory finished and can be assembled within a matter of minutes. No great DIY skills are required and no sophisticated equipment is needed - the only assembly tool required is a screwdriver.
To enjoy the best prices, KCI arranges to have container loads delivered anywhere in Britain; the 20' container can accommodate approximately 260 flatpack coffins.
In order to get a market reaction, a number of prominent funeral directors were approached, and shown samples; the immediate reaction was that it would be a pleasure to be able to offer such an attractive and different coffin, as an alternative to the veneers. The fact that they were available in flatpack form was a big plus factor - most funeral directors are hard pushed for storage space, which makes it very difficult to introduce new coffin models.
