Dieing doesn’t have to Hurt the Environment – Enter Banana Coffins.

DENVER, CO – Ecoffins USA is an upandcoming new eco-Banana Red Stripe a449firm – Sister company of The SAWD Partnership which is helping fuel the ‘green’ funeral movement in the UK.

Ecoffins unique product? Banana Coffins – no these aren’t for eating!

Banana coffins are quickly biodegradable taking six months to two years to biodegrade.

Joanna Passarelli the company’s Marketing Director says the company has sold $40,000 worth of eco-friendly coffins to funeral homes last year alone, and that number is sure to rise.

There are currently at least 14 funeral parlors that offer Ecoffins USAs products.

Passarelli said that “We either get an ‘Oh, my’ or ‘That’s very interesting’” one funeral director even commented saying “Wow, I guess you can go to hell in a handbasket now.”

Passarelli contends that bamboo and banana coffins, are better for the environment than cremation, but only science will tell us if that’s true.

Till then this is definitely an interesting product, and as a benefit if for some reason you’re buried alive like in some soap opera, where you’re only in a deep sleep – now you can eat the banana sheaves to stay alive.
