Cremation Options
New Tradition Funerals and Cremations offers two methods of cremation.
We will discuss with you which type is preferred for your family.
Traditional Flame Based Cremation
This is the option that most people know of as cremation. It uses intense heat created by flame to perform cremation.
Water Cremation - Non Flame Cremation
Also known as Alkyline Hydrolosis, this is an option newer in Illinois, and not offered by all cremation providers. New Tradition is grateful to be able to offer this option which uses no flame and is used by such organizations as UCLA Medical Center and the Mayo Clinic.
We are partnered with Cremation By Water to provide this new alternative, gentler and eco-friendly cremation option. Please check out their website for more information. https://www.cremation-by-water.com
