Creative Matters Joins LabelSTEP

We believe in the ethical treatment of the weavers and artisans that create our beautiful rugs overseas. It was these beliefs that lead us to support Label STEP and we are very proud to announce that we are Label STEPS’ first North American Partner.

LabelSTEP is an organization that’s committed to improving weavers living conditions, working conditions and ensure fair wages. It also promotes environmentally friendly production methods. Label Step is systematically monitoring the production sites of its licensees and their suppliers, and takes measures to ensure fair conditions.

Label STEP operates at the local level in all major carpet-producing countries - Afghanistan, India, Iran, Kyrgyzstan, Morocco, Nepal, Pakistan and Turkey. A portion of the sale of every rug we have made in Nepal go to support this organization. To find out more on the partnership between LabelSTEP & Creative Matters please download the PDF. JULY 2011 -
