A Practical Guide to Choosing the Ideal Location for Your Urban Pet Aquamation Facility
Insights from a Southeast Asia-Based Aquamation Machine Manufacturer
As a professional manufacturer and supplier of pet aquamation machines with over 15 years of experience in the pet care industry, we’re often asked by prospective clients across Thailand and Vietnam:
“Where is the best location to set up a pet aquamation facility in the city?”
The truth is — you don’t need a large plot of land, but you do need a strategic, compliant, and emotionally appropriate site. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you make the right decision.
1. Choose Areas with High Pet Ownership and Urban Density
Urban neighborhoods in Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Ho Chi Minh City, and Hanoi with large apartment complexes, expat communities, or pet-friendly housing tend to have higher pet ownership rates.
Tips:
- Look for locations near vet clinics, pet shops, or dog parks.
- Prioritize easy access via public transportation or main roads.
2. Compact Space? No Problem.
Our aquamation machines come in space-efficient models. You can operate a fully functional facility even with 25–40 m² of usable space.
Your facility should include:
- Aquamation machine room
- Family waiting or farewell room
- Storage for urns, ashes, and memorial boxes
- Basic utilities: water, electricity, drainage
3. Consider Local Business Permits and Environmental Regulations
Different cities have different requirements. We provide assistance with paperwork and environmental compliance in major Thai and Vietnamese cities.
We’ve helped clients successfully obtain permits in:
- Thailand: Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Pattaya
- Vietnam: Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, Hanoi
4. Peaceful Environment, Low Impact
Unlike fire-based cremation, aquamation produces no smoke, flames, or odor. This makes it ideal for urban areas — even near residential zones — as long as:
- You’re not next to food production or restaurants
- The building has proper drainage and ventilation
5. We Help You with Layout & Installation
We offer technical layout design services to help you plan your facility flow:
- Aquamation equipment layout
- Separate paths for pet intake and client farewell
- Clean zones vs. technical zones
- Water & power optimization
