Recommendations for use

Our urns receive a water-repellent treatment based on linseed oil. However, it is best to avoid exposing them to rain, snow or extreme heat during the ceremony.

Sea and Lake Burials

Althanat® urns can be used for sea and lake burials. A watersoluble ashbag is provided. The urn will float for one to two minutes before sinking and will completely dilute in water in less than 3 hours.
