Venturing Towards a Better Tomorrow
SUSTAINABLE TEXTILE MANUFACTURING
At Funeral Home Gifts, we have always been dedicated to the pursuit of a sustainable future.
Throughout the years we have updated our equipment and manufacturing approach to further our commitment to creating a product that is best for the consumer and the environment.
Our process begins with eco-friendly materials. Our blankets are comprised of 100% cotton, utilizing 25% recycled cotton, and any manufacturing waste is also recycled. The manufacturing process focuses on energy and resource-efficient machinery, which allows us to operate with minimal environmental impact.
Lastly, our products are made to last a lifetime, which keeps them out of landfills due to damage or wear. Years of research and product development have led us to a healthy and balanced sustainable product and process that we can continue to improve on as the world develops new technologies and sustainable solutions in the textile world.
