Biodegradable 'Resonance' urn made from spelt husks

A natural urn with a soft, gently rounded shape

The biodegradable 'Resonance' urn made from spelt husks has a gently rounded form and a deliberately simple design. The texture of the spelt husks, the natural outer casings of spelt grains, remains visible and tactile. This gives every urn subtle natural variations and a character of its own.

The restrained shape allows the material itself to take centre stage. This makes Resonance suitable for those who do not want a highly decorative urn, but instead value natural materials and a clear, understated design.

Made from a plant-based by-product

Spelt husks are left over when spelt is processed for food. For this urn, the husks are given a new purpose. They are combined with a plant-based binder and formed into a strong material.

The components used are derived from plant-based raw materials. Because the spelt husks are already produced during grain processing, no additional spelt needs to be grown specifically for the urn.

Biodegradable and fully compostable

Resonance is designed for burial in the ground. According to the manufacturer, the material is biodegradable and fully compostable. Under natural conditions, it breaks down completely within two years at the latest. The exact rate depends on factors including the soil, moisture and temperature.

• made from natural spelt husks and a plant-based binder;
• suitable for a biodegradable cremation ash container or ash bag;
• fitted with an integrated biodegradable lowering aid;
• can be decorated with natural materials if desired.

Careful lowering during the burial

Resonance has an integrated biodegradable lowering aid. The cords are incorporated into the urn and can be used during the burial to lower it carefully and in a controlled manner into the grave. They can then remain in the ground with the urn.

Easy to personalise

The natural texture of the spelt husks makes it easy to give the urn a personal touch. Flowers, grasses or small twigs can be added, and according to the manufacturer the urn can also be painted. Those who prefer a simpler appearance can leave Resonance entirely in its original natural finish.

Frequently asked questions about the Resonance urn

What is Resonance made from?

The urn is made from spelt husks combined with a plant-based binder to create a strong natural material.

Do the cremation ashes need to be transferred?

Not necessarily. Resonance is suitable for a standard cremation ash container and can also be used with an ash bag.

Can the urn tolerate moisture?

Normal levels of humidity are not a problem, but prolonged exposure to high levels of moisture starts the natural decomposition process. The urn should therefore be stored in a dry place before burial.

Can I decorate the urn myself?

Yes. The natural texture can be decorated with flowers, grasses or small twigs, for example. According to the manufacturer, the urn can also be painted.
