Why Offer a Laser Engraved Casket?

Life is not the process of accumulating wealth, but a journey of collecting memories. Life ends when death occurs, however, life’s beautifully written story can be relived when personalization is integrated into not just a funeral service, but a casket and forever memorial. Adding a completely personalized laser engraving to a casket allows families to truly reflect the life of their loved one. When you offer a laser engraved casket, the personalization options are endless. Nearly any piece of artwork, text, bible verses, song lyrics, etc. can be permanently marked on a casket. Laser engravings will set you apart from your competitors, add a high level of customer satisfaction to your services and can add more profit to your casket sales.

 What Casket Materials can be Engraved?

Today’s caskets are most commonly made of wood, (oak, pine, bamboo and walnut just to name a few) steel and metal, along with the new kids on the block: acrylic, wool and even cloth covered. The versatility of a laser engraving machine provides you the ability to mark all of these materials with ease. AP Lazer’s open architecture creates the perfect set up to engrave large bulky items like caskets.

Profit Capabilities

Until now, a laser engraved casket in the funeral industry has been an uncharted territory. Traditional “boxed up” laser machines don’t have the capacity to engrave a large items such as a casket due to their size and weight restrictions. With personalization on the rise, and the introduction of AP Lazer into the industry, funeral homes are now able to add a minimum of 10% to each of their casket sales when offering a laser engraved casket. Some funeral homes are adding laser engravings as a value added service, thus selling more caskets. Selling a $400 engraving just twice a month will pay the monthly lease of the AP Lazer most recommended for funeral homes.
