Casket Material

• Metal Casket

Titan’s metal caskets are made from the highest quality American-produced steel and finished with a vivid high-gloss. Our range of elegant metal caskets starts at $999, and they all can be customized in terms of steel thickness, color, and hardware. Head panels and imagery can also be personalized, and the caskets are offered in standard and oversized widths. Most steel caskets or coffins feature a locking mechanism and a rubber gasket to protect the casket from the elements. While the gasket does protect the interior from dirt and water, gaskets do not stop body decomposition, and the FTC’s Funeral Rule prohibits any vendor from making claims that their caskets grant eternal preservation.

• Wooden Casket

Classically lovely, wood caskets are typically crafted from hardwood or softwood. Softwood options include simple yet sophisticated pine caskets and coffins that are metal-free, making them cremation safe, eco-friendly, and favored for Jewish burial services. Hardwood caskets are crafted from Mahogany, Cherry, Poplar, Oak, and Satinwood and are available in a wide variety of finishes. Starting at $799, all of Titan’s handcrafted wooden caskets are customizable and offer a traditionally beautiful option for honoring your loved one.

• Seagrass Casket, Bamboo Casket, and Willow Casket

With an eye toward sustainability, Titan has introduced additional options into our eco-friendly collections. Certified Fair Trade, the seagrass/willow, bamboo grass, and all-willow caskets are sturdy caskets and coffins hand-woven in Bangladesh. The seagrass is not marine harvested but rather sourced via cultivated fields, while willow is a fast-growing plant that can be harvested without being cut down. Each casket is lined in unbleached, natural cotton with a matching privacy shield and pillow, while the willow casket is available with a viewing lid for open-casket funeral services. These caskets, when buried directly into the earth (as opposed to a vault), will break down naturally over time. These are also well-suited as eco-friendly cremation casket options.

• Cloth Casket and Particle Board Casket

Titan’s cloth-covered particle board caskets are skillfully handcrafted options that are more economical than wooden, steel, or willow options. Noted for its streamlined styling and decorative cloth covering, our cloth and particle board caskets and coffins offer a graceful and dignified option for honoring your loved one. These caskets can be designed with a range of interior styles, colors, and different lid types and are available in standard and oversized widths.

Casket Colors

Titan’s steel caskets are available in more than 20 exterior colors (with an array of interior fabric options) -- from brilliant red or vivid purple to stately black or delicate pink, your loved one’s favorite color can be incorporated. However, when designing a casket for the departed, you are not limited to choosing only one color. In fact, you can choose two colors, one for the lid and one for the base of the casket. This allows you to personalize your loved one’s casket to reflect school colors, national colors, their favorite team, or anything else that was important to them in life.

Head Panels

Exquisitely embroidered head panels can add an element of personalization to any casket or coffin. From patriotic or religious imagery to artwork celebrating a particular interest or hobby, options abound. Titan Casket offers more than 150 head panel options which can be included in your order or shipped separately to you for easy installation. If you have any questions about which background color or threading is the best match against your casket’s colors, feel free to reach out to us in the chat or by phone at 501-510-7820.

Steel Thickness

When choosing a casket from Titan or designing your own, you can customize the steel’s thickness. Our steel caskets are typically made from American-manufactured 20-gauge steel, but a heavier 18-gauge option is also available for a small added cost. A 16-gauge stainless steel casket or coffin can be produced upon request.

Oversized Caskets and Coffins

Titan has a variety of oversized caskets for sale online, including the Titan Atlas XL Steel Oversize Casket Collection, the Jupiter XL Oversize Swingbar Steel Casket, the Veteran Select XL Oversize Steel Casket, and Oversize Wood Caskets. These caskets and coffins can be bought in numerous widths, including 28-inch, 29-inch, 33-inch, and 36-inch sizes, as well as 40-inch and 44-inch sizes upon request. Every oversize Titan funeral casket is customizable by color.

Military Caskets and Coffins

Titan’s distinguished military caskets and veterans’ coffins are a perfect way to bid farewell to your loved one while honoring their military service. Choose a head panel that reflects the deceased’s branch of service or opt for a customized tribute, including a variety of patriotic imagery. This collection is also available with wider interiors to accommodate those who need more space.

Eco Caskets

We have a growing range of eco-friendly coffins and caskets ideal for honoring a loved one who desired a “greener” end-of-life ritual. Among our most popular casket models is the handcrafted White Pine coffin, which is 100% wood construction, including the screws. It is perfectly suitable for “green” cemeteries, as well as Jewish funerals. Our newest sustainable funeral caskets include hand-woven Fair Trade Bamboo, Seagrass, and Willow models. All of these environmentally-friendly caskets and coffins can also be used as cremation containers.

Casket Customizations

Titan’s mission is to offer the highest quality caskets in styles and colors that are part of a personalized tribute to the departed. With that in mind, we welcome customization requests, which we can often make for free and without adding production time. You can submit questions about specific custom details by phone or in the chat window; We also offer the world’s only Design Your Own Custom-Made Casket tool.

Funeral Casket and Coffin Prices

Our casket and coffin prices start at $679 for a simple yet dignified Cloth model, to $1,999 and beyond, depending on your size and style preference. Despite being offered at a fraction of the cost, Titan’s high-quality, handcrafted caskets and coffins serve as the ideal tribute to your departed loved one.

Shipping and Delivery FAQs

Titan Casket proudly offers free and quick standard shipping. Of course, if you need the casket or coffin faster, slower, or delivered on a specific date, give us a call, and we can usually accommodate those requests. We can also set up notifications prior to delivery, which would allow you to be present at the funeral home to inspect the casket when it is delivered. Please note that you are not required to be at the funeral home at the time of the delivery. If you are planning a DIY or at-home funeral at a residential location, the delivery carrier will call to set up a time for you to accept delivery at that address.

The FTC Funeral Rule: Your Rights

In 1984, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) put a new series of federal regulations in place to protect consumers from being taken advantage of during funeral planning. The new rules immediately placed a limit on the services and products that are required to be purchased from funeral homes.

One of the Funeral Rule’s most important elements is that it explicitly gives consumers the right to ship a coffin or casket that they have purchased from a third-party vendor to the funeral services provider. Funeral homes are required to accept the casket or coffin you provide without any extra penalties or added fees. This can result in enormous cost savings to consumers (up to 85%), as buying a casket online from a reputable vendor like Titan Casket can be significantly less expensive than comparable models offered at funeral homes. It also means that consumers have access to more options and a greater ability for customization. To learn more about the FTC’s Funeral Rule, click here.
