New Range of Burial Options
Now seeking community feedback
RPCV is pleased to announce the development of a new range of burial options that offer more choice for the community. In the past, RPCV has generally offered simple lawn graves at its various locations and these options will remain available. The development of this broader range of options is based on feedback which clearly indicates that more choice is important to the community.
RPCV is now seeking community feedback on the new products and we welcome ideas on other products and options that could be made available in the future.
The new product range is designed to provide more choice for the community but also, to improve the aesthetic appeal of the cemeteries as we continue to strive towards development of inviting and peaceful spaces for remembrance, reflection and healing.
RPCV is introducing new products that are segmented into four categories, based on the product offering and its key features.
Standard Lawn Grave
The Standard Lawn Grave includes a concrete beam for memorial items. This is available at most locations and can be provided with a lawn top or crushed stone top.
Classic Lawn Grave
The Classic Lawn Grave has additional features to the Standard range such as elegant granite vases or desks that are pre-installed on the concrete beam to enhance the grave and make it easier for families to adorn or memorialize it.
Deluxe Lawn Grave
The Deluxe Lawn Grave will include additional features of the Classic range and will be situated in an area that incorporates items such as advanced gardens or tree planting, seating, sculptures or water features that are designed to beautify the surrounding area.
Premium Lawn Grave
Premium Lawn Graves will incorporate all the features of the Deluxe range but will include more advanced design features in the surrounding area and/or the inclusion of elegant granite headstones.
RPCV is also introducing Monumental Graves with concrete foundational footings and Natural (Green) Burial graves which are available at some locations.
Some of the new products will shortly be on display and available at Eaglehawk Remembrance Park and Pine Lodge Cemetery, with more developments planned for other cemeteries in the future.
