Production Manager Christian Borch presents certificates for the successful completion of weaver training.
Good workmanship is the foundation for all of the products in our collection, and it is, therefore, important for us to be involved with supporting the art of weaving so that we can continue to uphold the craft.
Every time you buy hand-woven products such as PUK tea towels and 1862 guest towels, we support the training of weavers in a small textile factory in the town of Karur in Southern India so that we are involved in preserving the craft and tradition that represents the basis for all textile production at any given time.
We also provide life and health insurance for the weavers and their spouses so that they can receive private medical care, which in India can make a big difference if you fall ill or have an accident.
