Batesville Casket Company manufactures caskets and cremation urns. The company is a subsidiary of Hillenbrand, Inc.,[1] and is headquartered in Batesville, Indiana.
The company operates 4 manufacturing plants in Batesville, Indiana,[2] Chihuahua, Mexico, Manchester, Tennessee, and Vicksburg, Mississippi.
The company traces its roots to 1884, when John A. Hillenbrand began producing handmade wooden caskets.[citation needed] These caskets had ornate carvings made by casket and furniture companies.[3] In 1906, Hillenbrand purchased the failing Batesville Coffin Company, and renamed it to Batesville Casket Company.[4]
