John Heath & Sons provide simple coffins and more bespoke
coffins. We can still produce hand-crafted coffins in our own
workshops from solid timber, and indeed can produce an Upholstered
Cremation Coffin, a Solid Mahogany Coffin, or exclusively a
Traditional Solid English Oak Coffin. They are still made to the
designs drawn up by the original John Heath. To find out more about
our coffins please follow this link. Solid English Oak
Coffins.
We are very conscious of the need to protect the environment and
conserve natural resources. Our policy is to buy timber from
sustainable sources which are being properly managed and replanted
"one for one".
We are in the forefront of promoting the use of environmentally
friendly materials in coffin production; particularly for cremation
to conform with the most recent regulations on air pollution
control. We also provide various different modern alternatives,
including wicker/willow, bamboo, leaf and even cardboard
coffins.
