MES also offers multi-chamber pet cremation systems to help growing crematories align themselves with the surging demand for individual, private pet cremations.
Cremation Technology
Our M-Pyre® cremation technology is making cremation safe, green and productive via improved fuel efficiency and environmental performance. It also improves operator productivity by making these powerful systems easy to learn and simple to use. The system has been used to support over 3 million cremations, giving Matthews crematories access to knowledge and experience no other manufacturer can provide.
Using an intuitive logic control system, M-Pyre® allows operators to efficiently manage the operation of their cremation equipment. The process begins by answering a few basic questions prior to starting the cremation cycle, setting the equipment up for fully automatic operation. M-pyre® also includes remote-access capabilities to monitor crematory activity, access instant performance reports and open communications with Matthews technical support from anywhere in the world.
The Mpyre®3 system also provides big improvements in fuel efficiency, reducing fuel consumption by 15% or more compared to older technologies. This cuts both operating costs and greenhouse gas emissions.
