Aquamation often gets mixed with many other terms: bio-cremation, green cremation, water cremation, and many more. What's important to understand is that it is the most natural, safe, and sustainable way to honorably put your pet to rest.

Through a complex series of temperatures, gentle water flows, and pH balances (alkalinity), Blue Haven can accelerate the natural process that takes place after a standard burial or cremation. Furthermore, aquamation allows us to do so without the flame, emissions, carbon footprint, or barbarity associated with standard cremation.

All burials essentially come to the same result: a return of tissue to bone and mineral ashes. The main difference between these methods is the time it takes to reach that final state. Standard burial will naturally take the longest, as we are relying on the soil to break down tissue. Flame-based cremation accelerates this process but involves high temperatures, smoke, and carbon emissions to do so. Aquamation is the premier means to still accelerate this process, but to do so without the temperatures, smoke, and carbon emissions required to put your pet to rest. Simply put - it is a safe, natural, and climate-friendly way to honor your best friend.

What does this mean for you as a pet owner? It means a simple, compassionate process that allows you to properly part with your pet. Nothing can remove the sense of the loss you're feeling, and we understand that. We are here to embrace your emotions, including the love you will always have for your pet, and provide a safe and effective means of giving them eternal rest.
