Understanding the terramation process
We are sure you have a lot of questions. Eterrna are here to guide you through the terramation process, and help you make the right end-of-life choice for you or your loved one.
01
How does it work?
Terramation uses the same natural process as composting. Ancient wisdom combined with modern science creates an innovative approach to deathcare, allowing people to leave a greener legacy for the planet when they die, and offer loved ones greater involvement during and after the funeral process.
02
Caring for the body
The composting process takes place over approximately 60 days in a protected, climate-controlled environment. Within this vessel, the body is gently surrounded by organic materials like woodchips, hay, leaves and flowers. With warmth, air, and time, nature takes its course.
03
Caring for the bereaved
Throughout the process, families are supported with care, transparency, and respect. Grief is honoured. Questions are welcomed. You remain a part of the journey every step of the way, should you wish to be.
04
The re-terrning
When complete, the soil may be returned to loved ones for use in the garden, or donated to environmental organisations to help create a healthier landscape. From the wilderness of loss, seeds of hope can grow.

Resting
The bone powder is returned to the composting material and allowed to dry over 30 days.
Stage 5
