Fair & Sustainable

With every rug purchase, you support the social projects.

How are our rugs produced?

People are at the heart of what we do. This approach permeates all areas of our business, evident in both the personal care of our customers and the relationship we maintain with our weavers. Sustainable business relationships that bring forth the most beautiful products only thrive under fair conditions. Paying fair wages for this work is important to us. Therefore, our rugs have different prices compared to machine-made products. Sustainability is a big concern for us. We distance ourselves from the throwaway society.

RUGMARK Foundation

RUGMARK Foundation

RUGMARK, the initiative against the use of illegal child labor in the rug industry, was initiated in 1994 by Indian rug manufacturers and exporters along with many leading non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Intensive campaigns against the use of child labor were set as a goal. Positive solutions were required to avoid the negative consequences of illegal child labor for workers, exporters, and rug manufacturing regions. Together with UNICEF and the German-Indian Export Promotion Project (IGEP) of the German Society for Technical Cooperation (GTZ), the RUGMARK system was developed. RUGMARK is now a trademark-protected certification that assures importers and buyers that the rug was produced by a company committed to working without illegal child labor and is subject to an effective monitoring mechanism.
