Materials & Production

Carbon Urns are forged on the crossroads where innovative carbon fiber technology meets advanced design. They are made from the most advanced carbon fiber composites, which are processed using a self-engineered innovative Autoclave Composite Monocoque (ACM) technology (imagine a high-tech “pressure cooker”) that guarantees the products are precision-made, durable, and flawless.

Carbon Urns are unique in every technical perspective and have been developed with the same approach as used in the high-end automotive industry. All parts of the urn are handmade, assembled from top-quality materials, and custom-made for Carbon Urns.
 

What makes Carbon Urns so special?

Monocoque carbon fiber body

The monocoque carbon fiber body is made using our ACM technology, which represents a breakthrough in technology and production – a special innovative technological process, developed by CDT Group, for manufacturing complex hollow carbon fiber parts without joints and adhesives produced in an autoclave.

Autoclave Composite Monocoque (ACM) technology was invented by CDT Group which is the only company in the world that produces a high decorative finish complex-shaped closed-body monocoque carbon parts from prepreg carbon material processed in an autoclave using ACTM technology (e.g. a one-piece fuel tank for motorcycles).

This technology is directly applicable for fabrication of various one-step closed-body monocoques, where no cutting, trimming and bonding is required. In contrast to conventional bonding, ACM technology provides monocoques with supreme mechanical strength, chemical resistance and a flawless finish.

Autoclave was initially used in the aviation and space industry, but has eventually been integrated into other fields, such as F1 and motorsport, where top technology and quality are a prerequisite for safety.

Crystal clear lacquered carbon surface

The clear lacquering painting of the carbon part is the same process as used to paint Bugatti Veyron. Each part is painted in at least 9 layers to achieve the best possible surface finish.

The result is a crystal clear lacquered surface with a very deep 3D feel of fibers. On request, the surface can be protected additionally with an extra layer of nano ceramic coating.

CNC billet aluminum base and DNA compartment

The base, where the carbon-fiber urn body is mounted, and the accompanying DNA compartment are made from high grade 7075 aluminum, painted with Cerakote paint system which requires a skilled craftsman to apply it properly and maximize its properties and performance which is beyond any other painting system in the market.

Carbon Urns is the only urn in the market with a special compartment where you can store a DNA sample (e.g. lock of hair) of the deceased.

Custom made screws

All screws in the urn are custom made. Their design is purpose developed for Carbon Urns to fit the urn perfectly.

The urn comes with a special tooling with a TX30 head which you need to (un)screw them.

Engravable nameplate

Carbon Urns can be personalized with a custom engraving of your choice – a name, signature, or symbol that represents and commemorates the person resting inside the urn.

Different colors, styles, and even materials can be used for the engraving of the name plate - from laser engraved titanium to hand stitched leather. 

Unique & Safe Packaging

The urn is safely packed in a velvet coated box with everything you need to fill the urn at home, as well as maintain its perfect look and characteristics.

The packaging was developed to guarantee the best possible protection of the product during the transportation and while being stored, as well as easy unboxing and use.

The foam used for the inner packaging prevents the scratching of the surface and protects the urn. Its unique jig-like surface was developed to keep the urn in the right position when filling it. You can fill the urn at home seamlessly and without any potential loss of the ashes.

The box includes:

  • Urn of your choice
  • Bag for ashes
  • Custom tool for (un)screwing the urn
  • Detailing set (ceramic detailer cleaning fluid and microfibre polish wipe)
     

Flower vase adapter

Carbon Urns is a piece of art that draws admiration, while evoking positive, warm feelings and memories. Make it a central piece of your home by turning it into a flower vase.

The name plate can be easily replaced with a special adapter that functions as a flower vase.

  • Sold as an accessory
  • Holds 8.0 oz (0.24 l) of water
  • Uses magnetic coupling for positioning and installing
