An alternative container is the simple, non-casket container used for cremation or burial when a casket isn’t chosen. The Funeral Rule allows these containers to be made from fiberboard, pressed-wood, composition materials, or like materials because they provide a safe, affordable enclosure that can be incinerated. Materials such as glass, ceramic, or metal are typically associated with traditional caskets, not with alternative containers.
