Deciding on what type of coffin or a casket is suitable for your loved one’s funeral is one of the more significant decisions that need to be taken during the funeral arranging process. At Greenhaven Funerals, we aim to offer a wide range of options that suit your preferences, needs, and budget for a dignified burial service.
Whether you’re looking for affordable coffins or exquisite caskets, we’re here to guide you every step of the way. Scroll down to explore our selection of coffins and caskets available in Melbourne – all our prices are inclusive of GST.
A coffin, traditionally wider at the shoulders and tapered at both the head and foot, can be made from either composite board or solid timber. Each option is crafted with care and consideration for both aesthetics and durability.
Our composite board coffins have been produced via a manufacturing process where wood chips and fibres are pressed into a smooth sheet of board. They are then covered in either a paper or timber look veneer in a range of colours to enhance their appearance. This option provides a respectful and dignified tribute while being budget conscious.
Our solid timber coffins offer a timeless and natural look, crafted from high-quality wood that radiates warmth and elegance. Also available in a range of finishes, these affordable coffins blend tradition and craftsmanship. Choosing solid timber allows for a more bespoke and classic approach to the funeral service, honouring your loved one with a product made from nature’s finest materials.
Caskets differ in design, typically rectangular in shape and crafted for a more elaborate, refined appearance. Greenhaven Funerals’ affordable caskets in Melbourne are available in a variety of materials and finishes, providing a dignified option for your loved one’s farewell.
Our solid timber caskets are a beautiful, elegant choice for families seeking something classic and durable. Each casket is made from high-quality timber, with intricate craftsmanship evident in every detail. These caskets are designed to create a meaningful tribute while embracing the natural beauty of the wood.
For those who prioritise sustainability, we offer environmentally friendly coffins. Made from biodegradable materials such as wicker, bamboo and sustainably-grown pine, these coffins are a respectful choice for those wishing to minimise their environmental impact. This option allows for a gentle farewell that honours both your loved one and the planet (learn more about our Green Funeral Services).
We are proud to present our Greenhaven Signature Series of coffins and caskets, crafted from the finest Tasmanian Blackwood. These luxurious, handmade products reflect a commitment to excellence, with each piece carefully constructed by skilled artisans. The natural beauty of the timber is enhanced by a low-sheen lacquer, highlighting the grain and rich tones. For those seeking something truly unique and exceptional, the Signature Series is a heartfelt way to celebrate a life well-lived.
If you’re still feeling unsure about which type of coffin or casket best reflects the life and legacy of your loved one, our team of Life Celebration Specialists is here to provide guidance based on your own unique needs and preferences.
