Practicalities
Practicalities during the funeral
The Loop ForestBed™ is certified for traditional burials, natural burials and cremations. The ForestBed can be carried using the six integrated jute handles, or alternatively, shouldered for ease of carrying. During the burial it can be lowered with a mechanical lift system, as well as with ropes. Due to its hydrophobic properties, the ForestBed is perfectly suitable for use during a wake on a mobile mortuary refrigerator or for funerals in the rain. The ForestBed can be stored indefinitely when it is placed in a dry and ventilated space, just like conventional funeral carriers.

Interior lining
Bed of moss
The Loop Living Cocoon comes with a soft bed and pillow of moss as standard. The moss originates from the Netherlands, and is 100% natural.
Bed of wool
Opt for a soft bed of 100% Dutch wool sourced from Kempisch heath sheep, renowned for conservation efforts in the Kempen region. Locally made in the Netherlands and Greenleave approved. The bed of wool comes with a pillow and blanket, with a density of 500 g/m2.
Hemp
Replace the bed of moss with an elegant interior hemp lining. Hemp, a rapidly growing plant with minimal water requirements, is cultivated worldwide without the need for herbicides or insecticides. Our choice of Mediterranean hemp boasts impressive growth, reaching heights of 2.5 – 4.5 meters within just 130 – 150 days, making it one of the fastest-growing hemp species. Sourced and processed in Europe, where it is also spun and woven and is Greenleave approved. The hemp lining comes with a pillow and blanket, with a density of 345 g/m2.
Soft Bio-cotton
Replace the bed of moss with a soft interior bio-cotton lining. The bio-cotton is a slightly thicker knitted fabric that is brushed on both sides. As a result, the fabric has a very light appearance and feels very soft. This fabric is made from organic cotton sourced from Europe and has the GOTS label. The bio-cotton lining comes with a pillow and blanket, with a density of 320 g/m2.
