Water Cremation: The Eco-Conscious Alternative

Water cremation, also referred to as aquamation or alkaline hydrolysis, provides a green alternative to conventional cremation practices. This technique utilizes water and an alkaline solution to decompose the body, significantly lowering carbon emissions. It offers a gentle, respectful tribute to loved ones while almost completely diminishing their ecological impact. At Interra, we provide complete assistance to families navigating this sustainable solution.
