A shroud is a soft cloth that can be wrapped around the deceased. These shrouds are used for a wake, or as a replacement for a coffin.

Shrouds

Buying a shroud, a farewell without distance

Using a shroud can help relatives say goodbye. They can shroud the body themselves, which is a beautiful symbolic step in the process of saying goodbye. In addition to allowing for a personal farewell, a shroud also offers space for personal rituals. The shroud can be closed a little further each day and be decorated with flowers or personal mementos. If you want to make sure that a shroud is used for your funeral, you can buy one in advance and store it for a long time. When using a shroud as an alternative to a coffin, this is done in combination with a carrier.

Shrouds made of natural materials

Our shrouds are available in various natural fabrics, each with its own look and character. We have shrouds made of hemp, organic cotton, organic molton, various types of silk and Dutch wool. Instructions for folding the shroud are found in the enclosed instructions. In addition to shrouds and carriers, we also offer matching shroud straps and a soft felt condolence book.

Shroud Why use a shroud?

A shroud allows the body to be covered in something soft, while allowing the figure to remain more visible. This softness makes it easier to approach the body, especially compared to a closed coffin. Also, shrouding the body yourself, and closing it step by step over the course of a few days, is a soothing ritual that can help in processing grief. Another advantage of our shrouds is that they are made in a size that fits everyone. In addition, our shrouds are environmentally friendly, sustainable, and often organically produced and therefore can be used at natural burial grounds. We believe it is important that everyone can arrange a funeral in their own way, with as much respect for nature as possible.
