Funeral Industry FAQ and Coffin Lexicon – Coffins Store

We offer a wide range of wooden, cremation, wicker, cardboard, and child coffins. Each type is made from different materials and suited to various funeral traditions.

Wooden coffins are a timeless choice in the funeral industry. We craft them from oak, pine, or paulownia. Oak ensures durability and elegance, pine offers lightness and affordability, while paulownia provides a natural look with very low weight.

A cremation coffin is designed for cremation, made from pine wood or recycled cardboard, without metal fittings or chemical coatings. Fully combustible and compliant with European environmental standards.

The oval model has rounded edges and a refined profile, while the German style features a straight, traditional design. Both are available in lacquered or matte finishes with custom handle options.

Standard adult coffins measure approximately 200 cm in length, 55–65 cm in width, and 40–50 cm in height. We also produce children’s coffins with individually adjusted dimensions.

An eco coffin is made from natural materials such as wicker, cardboard, raw wood, or biodegradable components. Environmentally friendly and fully decomposable.

We use responsibly sourced Polish wood – oak, pine, and paulownia. We also offer models made of wicker and eco cardboard. All components are certified and meet environmental standards.

Paulownia is a lightweight, pale wood with high durability and extremely low weight. Ideal for cremation and export coffins. It’s a renewable and sustainable resource.

A biodegradable coffin naturally decomposes in soil without releasing toxins. This especially applies to wicker, cardboard, and untreated wood coffins.

Wicker coffins are handwoven from natural willow. Each is a unique artisan piece combining durability with the simplicity and beauty of nature.

The process includes wood selection, drying, cutting, shaping, gluing, varnishing, and fitting hardware. At Coffins Store, production takes place in Poland using CNC technology and manual finishing.
