Due to the nature of the funeral sector, many people are unaware of their options in purchasing memorial products in preparation for a funeral. This article is provided by Sydney Coffins. Sydney Coffins is a memorial product and funeral provider in Australia, specialising in unique and personalised coffins, and caskets.

For many centuries the funeral workforce has remained relatively unchanged. Funeral products are similar to how they were 200 years ago. Nevertheless, just as products in other industries have changed to suit the markets needs so has the funeral sector. Sydney Coffins is a leader in providing memorial product choices for everyone.

Given the rise of the internet, people have more knowledge to what is available on the market. The internet allows people to shop around and choose products and services from various retailers which better suit them.

Sydney Coffins aim to provide a wide array of designs such as traditional designs and exclusive designs for everyone to choose from.  So let us discuss the difference between traditional coffins and exclusive coffins.

It can be difficult to choose the right product for a funeral. There are many factors which come to question when choosing the right coffin or casket. The first one is your budget, style, and colour. Read ‘How to choose the right casket’ to find out more.

Traditional coffins and caskets

The funeral industry sells very similarly appearing items all around the world. The quality and design of the classic coffin and casket have remained relatively similar all over the world. Traditional coffins are appealing for many reasons.

In essence, the overall design of traditional coffins and caskets contain a piece of history. The profiled edges, the detail work offers a comforting appeal with the design quality of an older, classical time. Perhaps in death, these facets are comforting.

I equally like the traditional and exclusive range of designs. They both offer visual qualities that suit different requirements for the viewer. A traditional coffin reminds me of the sandstone buildings around Australia like our museums, library and even old postoffices. They emit a sense of wisdom and age that perhaps goes hand in hand with the complexity of death.

Choosing a funeral product is subjective. We may never find a product that can ever suit ourselves or our loved one. The best we can do is choose one which connects to us the most. Even if it is only a little bit.

Exclusive coffins and caskets

Sydney Coffins designs both coffins and caskets (read this article to understand the ‘Difference between a casket and a coffin’ for the international funeral market but having the honor of selling directly to the Australian public as well as Australian Funeral Homes.

Sydney Coffins is proud to offer the international funeral industry with our exclusive Australian designed coffin and casket collections. Some of our designs have a modernised approach which combines both the use of new materials and a new style.  Funeral products have never taken such a soft, warm and personal approach which is the primary aim of our design team.

With our exclusive collections, we deliver the same purpose at a similar price. Not everyone wants a $20,000 bronze casket. Not everyone can afford a $10,000 bronze casket even if they do want one. Our aim was to provide everyone with an appealing product which provides elegance to fit all budgets.

For this reason, we offer a wide price range for all our products both in the tradition and exclusive collections. So it is not a question of what budget you have, but what style you want.
