100% Nature
The Loop ForestBed™ is a 100% natural product, grown from mycelium: the underground root network of mushrooms. By collaborating with nature, we grow our ForestBed™ in just 7 days in our factory in Delft, the Netherlands, using only local mushrooms and upcycled hemp.
The thousands of fibres of the dense underground fungal network make mycelium a particularly light and sturdy material, suitable for growing a living product. By naturally drying the organism, the ForestBed™ gets its strength and stiffness, without losing the living properties of mycelium.
In nature, mycelium is the driving force behind the natural cycle of life, by continuously transforming dead organic matter into key nutrients for new seedlings to grow. This unique power enables the Loop ForestBed™ to rapidly become one with nature, transforming our human nutrients into a source for new life to thrive.
The soft bed of moss inside the Loop Living Cocoon™ cradles you in nature’s warm embrace, giving the Cocoon a soothing scent of the forest. A lining of sustainable linen is available upon request. Complete the Loop ForestBed™ with our sustainable linen shroud.
Details
The Loop ForestBed™ is 100% natural and grown from local mushrooms and upcycled hemp fibres. However unique the material properties of the Loop ForestBed™ may be, the experience of using this carrier for a funeral is similar to conventional carriers. The Loop ForestBed™ is in stock and available for funerals.
- The Loop ForestBed™ is certified for traditional burials, natural burials and cremations.
- The material of the Loop ForestBed™ is hydrophobic and therefore perfectly suitable for a wake on a mobile mortuary refrigerator or for a funeral in the rain.
- Every ForestBed™ is a unique organism, so we carefully test them all on quality and strength by lifting 200 kg. The carrier itself weighs 15 kg.
- The Loop ForestBed™ can be carried with the six jute handles attached to the carrier. The funeral carrier can also be shouldered.
- During the burial, the Loop ForestBed™ can be lowered with a mechanical lift system, as well as with ropes.
- The Loop ForestBed™ can be stored indefinitely when it is placed in a dry and ventilated space, just like a conventional coffin or carrier. The Loop ForestBed™ should be stored horizontally.
- Inner Dimensions: length 195 x width 58 x height 8 (cm). Outer Dimensions: length 216 x width 75 x height 13 (cm).
