Dutch wool

The Thick wool shroud is made of 100% Dutch wool. The wool is sturdy, thick and exceptionally soft, which wraps the body with comfort and with dignity. The shroud can be folded using our standard instructions, or in a simplified version that is easier given the thickness of the fabric. Both instructions are included.

A cherished ritual

When organizing a funeral, a lot is outsourced. Using a shroud offers the opportunity to do the shrouding yourself. Shrouding can be a helpful ritual at the beginning of a grieving process. Some people embroider the shroud or put personal notes between the folds.

Folding a shroud

Sustainable, local wool

It is special that this fabric is produced locally, since wool mills have slowly disappeared from the Netherlands in recent years. Almost all local wool is since exported as a residual product to Chinese weaving mills or burned as a waste product. This means that that wool usually has a major environmental impact. The wool of this shroud is harvested from flocks of sheep that are used for nature conservation, and the cloth is produced locally.

Dutch wool

The carrier

In order to use a shroud at a cremation or burial, a carrier is required. We offer various carrier that complement the Thick wool shroud, such as the Willow bowl and the Willow carrier.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best way to fold the shroud?

There are two standard ways to fold a shroud: open and closed. For the Thick wool shroud, another method was developed that suits the thicker fabric. All instructions for folding a shroud are included.

Can a shroud be used for cremation?

Yes, it is possible to use a shroud, in combination with a carrier, for cremation. Some crematoria require the use of a Cremation input board when the carrier doesn't have a flat bottom plate. Always contact the crematorium or the funeral director you are working with, to be sure what the requirements are.

Can a shroud be purchased now and be stored for a long time?

A shroud can be stored for years as long as it is kept in a dry, dark space. We recommend placing the shroud in a cotton cover or pillowcase. Be sure to keep moths away, since they can damage the wool fibers.
