Weaving a better future


Hand-made rugs are very popular for their unique craftsmanship and rich history.

At IKEA we believe there should be a way to work with producers, to maintain the quality and feel of a handmade rug, while at the same time radically improve working conditions.

Better conditions, better products

Improving the way we produce hand-made rugs, with decent working conditions and fair pay, quickly proved to be a win-win situation. For weavers it's meant that orders, work and income are steady, regular and predictable.

“Firstly we provided the weavers with regular work in a safe environment, with legal, regulated wages plus benefits such as holidays and transport. We also set up two schools, where trainees are paid while they’re learning.”
Kushal Chakravorty, IKEA Business Development Manager
