OUR BELIEF

“Human dignity is at the heart of responsible and ethical rug manufacturing.”

The RMC Collections social responsibility philosophy rests on two commitments that have to work together, not separately: genuine fair trade carpet manufacturer practices, and child labour free rug production verified independently rather than declared internally.

OUR COMMITMENT

Ethical Rug Manufacturing

01

Fair Wages &
Safe Ateliers

Every artisan in our network earns an above-market wage with access to safe, well-lit workshops and regular welfare reviews. Financial stability for the maker is the foundation of quality in the product.

02

Women's
Empowerment

Over 40% of our workforce are women - weavers, finishers and supervisors. We provide flexible arrangements, skill certification and financial literacy programmes so women build fully independent livelihoods.

03

Community
Upliftment

Our ties to Bhadohi run deeper than production. We invest in local infrastructure, healthcare access, sanitation and schooling - because a thriving craft requires a thriving neighbourhood.

04

Skill Development &
Knowledge Transfer

Structured apprenticeships and mentorship ensure centuries-old weaving techniques pass from master to next generation - preserving India's intangible cultural heritage, one knot at a time.

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Supporting Fair Employment

Weaver Welfare Fund

Weaver Welfare Fund

An internal fund provides emergency financial support, medical aid and maternity benefits to all artisans and their immediate families.

Women's Skill Centre

Women's Skill Centre

A dedicated training space where women learn advanced finishing, quality inspection and supervisory roles - elevating careers from entry-level to leadership.

Youth Apprenticeship

Youth Apprenticeship

School-leavers from Bhadohi and surrounding villages enter a two-year apprenticeship under master weavers - earning while learning the techniques that define our craft.

OUR PEOPLE

Fair Employment in Bhadohi

Fair employment here isn't limited to our own workshop floor. Supporting rural weaving community support across 30+ villages means the same standards — fair wages, safe conditions, real opportunity — extend to the wider network of artisans this craft actually depends on.
