A novel technique for the fabrication of a casket dome lid from, for example, Smooth-One-Side (“S1S”) hardboard is disclosed. The invention is also directed to the fabrication of a casket lid which has a domed configuration both in the lateral and longitudinal directions of the lid. The method comprises the steps of providing a lid blank having a first end, second end, and a central region; providing a pair of diagonal voids oriented at corners of the first end of said blank and extending inward toward the central region; placing the lid blank in a vacuum fixture; and flexing the lid blank into a domed configuration via the vacuum fixture, such that the blank is domed in both a longitudinal and a transverse direction.

A coffin, in particular for burial in the ground, includes a bottom, side walls, a lid, a mattress and collecting means capable of receiving vital fluids under the mattress. The coffin also has oxygen-storage means enabling oxygen to be introduced into the coffin, humidifying means and heating means so as to generate, over time, conditions which allow rapid decomposition of the body.

A folded blank includes a bottom panel, side panels, and end panels. The bottom panel has opposite side edges and opposite end edges defining a length and width sized to support a deceased human body in the supine position. The side panels are connected to the opposite side edges of the bottom panel, and extend outward from and substantially parallel to the bottom panel. The end panels are foldably connected to the opposite end edges of the bottom panel, and are folded to extend inward from the corresponding opposite end edges. The folded blank also includes at least one gusset foldably connected to a side panel along a first fold line and connected to an end panel along a second fold line. The gusset has a diagonal fold, and has a first surface disposed adjacent to and coupled to the side panel in an additional location away from the first fold line.

A biodegradable burial container to be disposed under a ground surface at roots of a plant, the biodegradable burial container including a main body to receive a corpse therein and decompose the corpse in response to contact with the corpse, such that the decomposition of the corpse nourishes the plant, and a vegetation layer disposed within at least a portion of the main body to retain moisture within the main body.
