   AQUAMATION

  FOR PETS

the natural, gentle, eco-friendly

alternative to fire-based cremation

Natural


Aquamation mimics nature's process of decomposition, achieving in 5 to 6 hours what, in nature, would take 25 years.

Gentle


A combination of warm water flow and alkalinity are used to accelerate the natural process of tissue hydrolysis and return the body back to nature.

Eco Friendly


Because it is not a combustion process, Aquamation is more environmentally friendly, with a carbon footprint 18x less than flame-based cremation.

Water-Based


Using a combination of 95% water and 5% alkalinity, Aquamation mimics, but accelerates, the natural breakdown of a body laid to rest directly in the soil.

We are proud to be the only St. Louis area funeral home to provide Aquamation for pets.

We understand that pets are not just pets. They are family. That is why we provide the same passionate care and service for your pet, just as we would any family member that passed away. That is why we offer:

 


  • Aquamation services in a professional/dignified funeral home setting
  • Professional and caring staff that is available 24 hours a day
  • Wide variety of urn and memorialization options
