Resomation is an environmentally beneficial alternative to cremation and is both dignified and respectful. It has been developed in response to increasing environmental awareness and concern. The key aspects of the overall process are patent pending.
A funeral involving resomation is exactly the same as one involving cremation until the point at which the coffin is committed from view. The coffin is placed in a special chamber and, instead of fire, resomation uses a water and alkali based method which uses the same chemistry as in natural decomposition but is much quicker.
