Components: Cremation Ashes to Diamonds Cost
The cost to turn ashes into diamonds is composed of purifying the ashes, creating the diamond, polishing and shipping.
Price Factor I – Cremation Ashes into Diamonds Cost
Carbon Purification
The cost of carbon purification is fixed regardless of the cremation diamond’s size.
Carbon purification for a 4N purity (99.99%) is a sophisticated process that is necessary to produce flawless diamonds of may color. It is carried out manually and with the utmost of respect by BIOS’s specialists, taking an average of 5,000 minutes per diamond.
The BIOS carbon purification is 25 times more that the cost of other ‘memorial diamonds’ treated with a mixture of pre-purified industrial graphite. Graphite (generic carbon) is added in their process to dilute impurities, saving time and cost.
Price Factor II – Cremation Ashes into Diamonds Cost
Diamond Creation
The BIOS cremation diamond creation costs are dependent on growing time, which is measured in months, not hours. The larger the diamond, the longer the time in the synthesis environment and the greater the cost. The cost to turn ashes into diamonds larger than 0.5 carats is appreciably higher for this reason alone.
A diamond seed is required for carbon atoms derived from ashes/hair to attach to and crystallize. To achieve the ultimate beauty of your cremation diamond, BIOS only uses natural diamonds from the top 0.1% of the best available diamonds as ‘seeds’. We never use CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) diamonds, which are much cheaper – for a reason. While this would reduce the cost to turn ashes into diamonds, it does not reflect our philosophy of treating every cremation diamond as if we were making it for ourselves.
Price Factor III – Cremation Ashes into Diamonds Cost
No Local Mark-up
Most companies sell through regional distributors and other layered channels, each one adding their own profit margin. Where you enter the network impacts how much it costs to turn ashes into diamonds.
With BIOS there are no middlemen, so you pay only for quality, instead of 35%-45% in distribution mark-ups. The cost to turn ashes into diamonds should reflect the quality and size of the diamond, not the distribution network.
BIOS’s transparent cremation diamond prices are clearly visible. With BIOS there is no “Price on application” or changes in how much it costs to turn ashes into diamonds.

Production costs and time are the lowest resulting in amber cremation diamonds being the most popular option. If you wish the color of your beloved diamond remain natural, choose the amber color.
