RUGMARK

RUGMARK is a global nonprofit organization working to end child labor and offer educational opportunities for children in India, Nepal and Pakistan.


The RUGMARK label is your best assurance that no illegal child labor was employed in the manufacture of a carpet or rug. It does this through loom and factory monitoring, consumer labeling, and running schools for former child workers.
RUGMARK recruits carpet producers and importers to make and sell carpets that are free of illegal child labor. By agreeing to adhere to RUGMARK's strict no child labor guidelines, and by permitting random inspections of carpet looms, manufacturers receive the right to put the RUGMARK label on their carpets. The label provides the best possible assurance that children were not employed in the making of a rug. It also verifies that a portion of the carpet price is contributed to the rehabilitation and education of former child weavers.
RUGMARK carpets are sold in Europe, North America and now in Brazil.
