The cremation machine of Pangasinan was just delivered this October and the building the crematoriium is fast nearing completion.  We are familiaizing the  staff with the  pricing and how to sell this

Here are some of the videos from You Tube to further make our staff and public familiar with this new memorialization service

The trend now in USA is for cremation surpassing 50% of all total deceased in 2018.   Experts predict this to be maxing out at 70%.  Why are Americans shifting to cremation?

                  1.  It is cheap and affordable
                  2.  It saves land
                  3.  It is convenient;
                  4.  It is the trend

Will this catch on in the Philippines.  May be.  In MM the % is 40% because the traditional funeral service is expensive -  lowest P50,000.  Direct cremation would only be P20,000 with free urn (marble) included



In  2016, the  % of cremation to all ceremonies is mere 46.57 %;  now it is at 51%.  The saturation point will be in next 20 years will be probably at 70%.  It is more common with females, Asian, those who have higher income, and who are educated.

The reasons given is economy, second is it saves land, and third, it their preference.

Funeral homes have
1.  Decreased in number by 11%
2.  Decreased in profitability  (59% in the last 30 years)

Due to pressures from increasing demand of cremation
