ABOUT THE COMPANY
Welcome to INVIROPOD™, an Australian based company dedicated to the research and development of environmentally friendly solutions for the burials industry. Our products aim at solving many of the problems most nations around the world currently face within their burials system when trying to keep a balance between tradition, religion, ecologically friendly practices and the cost of land, especially in busy cities.
NOW LET’S TALK ABOUT DEATH RATES
PEOPLE DIE EVERY DAY, BUT DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY?
According to the World Health Organisation, measuring how many people die each year and why they died is one of the most important means. Let’s explore together some of the numbers.

WHY?
Graves fill up with water thereby interfering with the natural decay process. Other factors include weather, temperature, pH, oxygen levels and cause of death.
BUT THAT IS NOT THE ONLY PROBLEM…
GRAVEYARDS ARE RUNNING OUT OF SPACE WORLDWIDE
SOARING PRICES DUE TO LAND SCARCITY
AND THERE ARE EVEN MORE PROBLEMS WITH THE CURRENT BURIAL SYSTEM
- Bio-Hazards released by the decaying body are mixing with water logged graves, contaminating the surrounding earth and entering our precious water ways.
- Water logging in graves slows down the natural decay process of a corpse, reducing turnaround time to reuse of grave plot.
- Families distressed knowing bodies of loved ones are submerged in water inside their grave
- Possible Groundwater pollution.
- Cremation is NOT an option in many faiths
