The environment

South Lincolnshire Crematorium is committed to ensuring that any adverse impact it has upon the environment is minimised.

The cremator equipment installed is the most efficient and clean available and the building is designed such that energy consumption, along with carbon and other emissions are kept to the absolute minimum possible. To support this, the crematorium operates a ‘holding-over’ policy. This means that on certain occasions, the cremation of the deceased may not take place on the day the funeral service takes place. In such circumstances, the deceased will rest in a dedicated room and cremation will always take place within 72 hours of the service.

If it is important to you that cremation takes place the same day as the service, you should advise your funeral director or the crematorium manager in advance of the day of the funeral.
