What is a Burial Vault?

A burial vault is a lined and sealed outer receptacle that houses and protects the casket.

It protects the casket from the weight of the earth and heavy maintenance equipment that will pass over the grave.  It also helps resist water and preserves the beauty of the cemetery by preventing the ground from settling.

If it's not lined and sealed...it's not a Burial Vault

Not to be confused with burial vaults, an outer burial container, or grave box, is an unlined concrete box that is not water resistant. 

Burial vaults are constructed of high-strength concrete and reinforced with a metal or plastic liner and provide the most lasting protection.

As defined by the National Concrete Burial Vault Association, if an outer burial container is not lined and sealed, it’s not a burial vault.
