Ashes scattering tube urn charcoal

A farewell in a place that meant something

Some places hold a particular weight. A garden you tended together, a stretch of coastline, a woodland path you both knew well. If you are planning to scatter ashes, the moment deserves something that supports it quietly and with care. This charcoal ashes scattering tube is designed to do exactly that.

How the tube works

The scattering tube is made up of two interlocking cylinders with a removable outer lid. Beneath it sits a second inner lid with a pre-perforated opening. That opening controls the flow of ashes as you scatter, so you set the pace and the moment stays in your hands. This is a considered design choice, not an afterthought. It allows both funeral professionals and families to work calmly and at their own pace, without anything feeling rushed or uncontrolled.

Fully biodegradable, no metal or plastic

The tube is made entirely from paper. There are no metal components, no plastic parts. That makes it 100% biodegradable. If you choose to bury it, the paper breaks down gradually and the ashes return to the earth over time. For those who feel that a farewell can also be an act of returning something to the natural world, this sits well with that thinking.

Kept or scattered, the choice belongs to you

The tube does not have to be used at a single moment. It can be kept as a temporary resting place for someone who wants to take time before scattering, or for those who plan to scatter in stages across different visits or locations.

Available in more than one size

Because the tube comes in several sizes, it is possible to divide the ashes between smaller tubes when scattering is planned across more than one place. Each family member can then mark the occasion in their own way and at their own time, connected by the same shared memory of the person they loved.

Practical considerations

This cremation urn is suited to both indoor and outdoor use. The paper construction is robust enough for normal handling and transport to a scattering site, but it is not waterproof. If the tube is to be used outdoors, dry conditions are advisable. Store it somewhere dry until the moment arrives. There are no seals or closures that require adhesive, and no metal parts that could complicate biodegradation or burial.

What this urn for ashes is suited to

The scattering tube works across several different types of farewell. It is suitable for above-ground scattering, for burial in the earth, and for keeping as a temporary place of rest. Its pre-perforated opening makes controlled scattering straightforward, and its fully biodegradable construction means it leaves nothing behind that does not belong in the ground.
