CCBC31000_CONWY_CREMATORIUM_BRANDING_LOGO_PACK_FINAL-10We are moving towards providing a more environmentally friendly service and we ask you to consider more eco-friendly options when planning a funeral.

Eco-friendly options  |  Woodland burials

Eco-friendly options

These can include:

  • asking the funeral director not to using embalming chemicals 
  • not having plastics on your choice of coffin
  • not using plastic wrapping on floral memorials and tying naturally

We also request you don’t place lights, wind chimes or windmills around the cemetery as these can impact on a mourner’s experience.

Woodland burials

Woodland burial


We offer woodland burials at:

  • Llanrhos Cemetery, Llanrhos
  • Rhandir Hedd Cemetery, Llanfairfechan
  • Tan y Foel Cemetery, Penmaenmawr

A woodland burial is an environmentally friendly option, without a traditional coffin or headstone. Using a biodegradable coffin or casket made from cardboard, natural timber or woven grass, these burials have less impact on the environment.
