Outside The Box: Sustainable Caskets & Coffins in NZ

Honouring you, honouring the earth

​We are all trying to minimize our impact on the planet by being mindful about the waste we create. But what about when we die?

We designed Outside the Box Caskets so you can leave a legacy, not a footprint.
We help you to do this by offering only 100% biodegradable cardboard caskets, made from sustainable and recyclable materials.

With no plastic, no metal and no other nasties, our caskets are a kinder, ecological solution to traditional timber and MDF caskets.
