for approx. 10 years we have now woven our
RECYCLED ECO COTTON RUGS out of recovered fibres from discarded clothes.
The clothes are colour sorted and pulled apart until they are down to coloured fibre form. We hand-weave this new yarn into delightful and durable new eco cotton rugs.
our rugs carry the goodweave label, which stands for child labour free certified rugs. being a licensed manufacturer, we support the educational programs offered by goodweave as a key to reducing child labour and breaking the cycle of poverty. goodweave is a non-profit organization that works to end exploitative child labour, inspecting factories and providing rehabilitation and education for former child weavers. local goodweave inspectors in nepal and india conduct random visits to the licensed manufacturers, who – when goodweaves strict no-child-labour standards are met – are issued unique, traceable certification labels for their rugs. goodweave sponsors programmes for licensed manufacturers and their workers which include trainings on protection against environmental hazards in the workplace, human rights, health, sanitation and family planning.
