Composite Material Urns for Ashes

Cremation Urns made from composite material can be made in any shape or form.

Composite materials are formed by combining two or more materials in such a way that the
constituents of the composite materials are still distinguishable, and not fully blended. One
example of a composite material is concrete, which uses cement as a binding material in
combination with gravel as a reinforcement.

Composite materials take advantage of the different strengths and abilities of different
materials. In the case of mud and straw bricks, for example, mud is an excellent binding
material, but it cannot stand up to compression and force well. Straw, on the other hand, is
well able to withstand compression without crumbling or breaking, and so it serves to
reinforce the binding action of the mud. Humans have been creating composite materials to
build stronger and lighter objects for thousands of years.

The majority of composite materials use two constituents: a binder  or matrix  and a
reinforcement such as resin which is the case for our cremation urns. The reinforcement is
stronger and stiffer, forming a sort of backbone, while the matrix keeps the reinforcement in
a set place. The binder also protects the reinforcement, which may be brittle or breakable,
as in the case of the long glass fibers used in conjunction with plastics to make fiberglass.
Generally, composite materials have excellent compressibility combined with good tensile
strength, making them versatile in a wide range of situations.

These engineered composite materials and are designed to be impervious to almost all the
elements.
