Welcome to the Coffin, Casket and Shroud Association 
(CCSA)

Objectives

The Coffin Casket and Shroud Association (CCSA) has three main objectives:


* To set a standard for all coffins, caskets and shrouds sold in the UK, in         particular those used for cremation. And to publicise those companies       which have met this standard.

* To encourage manufacturers of these products to adopt more green-           minded practices in all aspects of their work.

* To help bring alternative and innovative goods into the mainstream,             particularly those produced by start up companies.

Why do I need my coffins tested?

In order to ensure coffins used for cremation are safe and ready to use, these tests have been carried out by  an independent testing house in accordance with the Coffin and Casket Testing Protocol developed between 2013-2018.

What happens after the coffin has been tested?

You will be notified by the testing houses & the CCSA on the results of the tests, as soon as they are made available.
