Flameless Cremation, or alkaline hydrolysis, is a gentle and green

Flameless Cremation, or <a href="https://www.cremationassociation.org/page/alkalinehydrolysis" title="https://www.cremationassociation.org/page/alkalinehydrolysis" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">alkaline hydrolysis</a>, is a gentle and greener process that provides families with another form of disposition for their loved ones. This innovative method utilizes alkaline water and heat to break down the body, offering a more sustainable and energy-efficient option compared to traditional fire cremation. In fact, alkaline hydrolysis uses only 1/20th of the energy required by traditional flame cremation, reducing its impact on the environment.With flameless cremation, families have the opportunity to make a lasting contribution to the environment on behalf of their loved ones. By choosing this alternative method, they can save energy and help reduce pollution, thus leaving a positive legacy for future generations. At Pacific Interment, we understand the importance of honoring the wishes of each family and offer flameless cremation as a thoughtful choice for those seeking a gentle and eco-friendly process.
