MANUFACTURING

Weaving is the most traditi­onal technique to produce a carpet. To do so, you cross two threads (chaining and weft thread) rectangularly with each other. The spe­cialty of a hand woven car­pet is that you can use it on both sides
HARO^®-TEPPICHE by Paulig sees itself as a manufacturer, deriving from Latin “manus” (the hand) and “factura” (the making). From the sheep-shearing up to the fini­shed carpet, the dyeing and the yarning of the wool, followed by the weaving, knotting and tufting – a HARO carpet is handmade from beginning to end.
To be able to guarantee this important basis the complete production process step by step lies in the hands of HARO^®-TEPPICHE itself. This self-contained value-added chain provides the certainty of achieving the best quality on the highest environ­mental level. But what is the difference between a handmade carpet compared to mainly machine-made ones? It is the human factor, the flair of harm­ony, liveliness and passion. You can see it, feel it and sense it. Handicraft has indeed soul!

Be friendly to the earth.

From the beginning, the HARO^®-TEPPICHE weaving mill has always produced its carpets in such a way, that people and environment have been protected. HARO^® pays strict attention to ensuring that all produced or ordered materials are made without the participation of children in the wor­king process. Our local repre­sentatives, who work on site, are able to check this every day. Another important aspect is the consis­tent choice of renewable primary pro­ducts of high quality – wool, jute, cotton, hemp, sisal and silk – which is the best premise for a gentle further processing. This starts with clear water and chemi­cal-free soap. The carpet moth conservation needed is of course odorless and certified as representing no health hazard. Dyeing is also done on the high­est ecological level at HARO^®. Heavy metal-free, strictly controlled quality products from Switzerland help to pro­tect people, air and water. And only what is written on the HARO^® carpet label can be found in the carpet itself. It is indeed the case that the pro­duction of a HARO^® carpet is friendly to the earth, human beings and nature.
