The main benefit is for the cemetery: a vault prevents the grave from caving in as a result of a breakdown of the casket and / or the use of heavy cemetery maintenance machinery.

In addition to that, a - hermetically sealing - vault may provide the relatives with the peace of mind that at least for some decades no groundwater and no insects can enter the casket.
