How it works

Each Pachamama urn is designed for a gentle, respectful farewell in harmony with nature.

🕊️ Floating Time
The urn floats for approximately 30 seconds to 2 minutes, offering a serene moment of reflection before it softly begins its descent.

🌊 Biodegradable Process
Once submerged, the biodegradable bag containing the ashes dissolves within 1–2 minutes, allowing the ashes to return naturally to the earth. The outer urn, crafted from sustainable materials, dissolves completely, usually within a week depending on water conditions.

📜 Simple Instructions
Each urn comes with easy-to-follow instructions and a biodegradable bag for the ashes. No assembly is needed—just gentle hands and an open heart.

This process honors the sacred cycle of life, returning your loved one to nature with beauty, dignity, and care.

Cruise & Airline Policies

🚢 Cruise Ceremonies
Most cruise lines allow biodegradable urns for sea ceremonies, often requiring advance notice and coordination with Guest Services. Ceremonies must be held on an open deck, not from balconies.
We include a biodegradability certificate with every order.

✈️ Air Travel
Pachamama urns are fragile and not recommended for air travel. For flights, use a TSA- and IATA-approved container and transfer the ashes into the urn upon arrival.

Eco Promise & Materials

Each Pachamama urn is crafted with 100% biodegradable materials, including cotton, natural paper, plant fibers, and tissue paper. Every component is non-toxic, gentle on the Earth, and designed to return naturally to the environment.

Our urns are USDA BioPreferred® certified, and a printed certificate ships with every order.

This is our eco promise: to honor life with beauty, and the planet with care.

Shipping & Timing

We offer fast and reliable shipping within the U.S., free. Urns ship the same or next business day; other items, the next business day. Delivery takes 3 to 6 business days in the continental U.S. (5 to 10 to Alaska, Hawaii and remote areas).

A Simple, Sacred Ritual

Prepare with Love

Gently place the ashes into the water-soluble bag, which dissolves once in contact with water. Close it with the ribbon, perhaps lighting a candle or speaking a few words of remembrance as you do.

Place with Care

Place the bag inside the urn, move it softly so the ashes settle evenly, and then close the urn with the natural jute cord provided—tying it as a symbol of love and connection.

Release with Intention

When ready, place the urn into the water—or into the earth. You may play music, light a candle, or speak from the heart, letting this moment become a tender farewell in harmony with nature’s cycle.
