Transcend recently debuted a meaningful Tree Burial Kit for pets. The DIY Kit includes an organic, biodegradable flax linen carrier used to both carry and bury your pet, Transcend’s unique blend of fungi-enriched soil that ensures a direct connection between body and tree, and a step-by-step Tree Burial guide.
Unfortunately, more than 70% of pets are discarded at the vet’s office after being put down. In an effort to facilitate a more meaningful and eco-conscious way to do right by your beloved companion, Transcend’s Tree Burial Kit for Pets makes it easy to bury your pet under a native tree near your home, so you can always keep them close.
The kit was designed in collaboration with Daniele De Iuliis, an industrial design expert who spearheaded 400+ design and utility patents. He says, “the kit had to be practical, yet respectful to the process at hand – and at a time when you have a heavy heart. Choosing materials that are scientifically proven is part of the equation, but then you have to create something practical without looking too utilitarian. There has to be a reverence to emotion.”
