Eco-Friendly Coffins Made from Sunflower Waste
Pivert Funeraire, a French company, has designed eco-friendly coffins made from plant-based waste like sunflower, rapeseed, and sawdust. These coffins burn more cleanly than traditional ones, reducing pollution. The coffins' plain surface allows friends and family to decorate them with messages, drawings, or flowers during the ceremony, making the moment more shared and creative. In France, around 600,000 coffins are used every year, contributing to pollution. Solutions like Pivert are reimagining traditional moments to be gentler on the planet and more meaningful.
