Designer Creates Biodegradable Cardboard Caskets For Your Beloved Pets





New Zealand-based packaging designer Mat Bogust has created ‘Rest In Pets’, a biodegradable cardboard casket for pets.



Reflecting on his own painful experience on the death of a pet, he was inspired to create something that gave beloved family pets a more solemn dignity in their death.



The caskets come in three different shapes—a hexagonal shape, a coffin shape, and an urn. These shapes are available in different sizes for different pets. They are biodegradable, so they can be burried in the ground easily.



The urn is thoughtfully designed to store cremated ashes. It has a pull-out tab that allows you to scatter the ashes if you choose to do so.



The project is currently on Kickstarter. If you would like to see it realized, support their work.
