In 2019, I was living in Joshua Tree, California, where I taught rock climbing and yoga in Joshua Tree National Park. One unique aspect of Joshua Tree is its quartz monzonite granite stone, perfect for climbing and known for its unique electromagnetic properties. This made using plastic yoga mats counterproductive, as they insulate from the earth's grounding properties that could facilitate the free flow of energy.

Sustainability
How do you choose what materials to use?
At BaseCamp Rugs, we prioritize both quality and sustainability in our material selection. That's why we use 100% organic cotton for our rugs. We source this organic cotton directly from Panipat, India, where artisans have perfected the art of rug-making for generations. Organic cotton is not only incredibly soft and durable, but it's also better for the environment. It's grown without harmful pesticides or synthetic fertilizers, which helps to protect soil health and promote biodiversity.
Where are your products made?
Our beautiful rugs are handcrafted in Panipat, India, a region renowned for its rich textile heritage. We partner with skilled artisans who use traditional weaving techniques to create our unique designs. By working directly with these artisans, we ensure fair trade practices and support the preservation of this age-old craft.
What are you doing to be more sustainable?
Sustainability is at the core of everything we do at BaseCamp Rugs. Here are some ways we're working to minimize our environmental impact:
Organic Materials: As mentioned, we use 100% organic cotton, which reduces reliance on harmful chemicals in production.
Fair Trade Practices: We partner directly with artisans in Panipat, ensuring they receive fair wages and supporting their livelihoods.
Local Sourcing: Sourcing our materials from Panipat minimizes transportation emissions and supports the local economy.
Rug Care: We provide detailed rug care instructions to help you extend the life of your BaseCamp rug, reducing waste.
We're constantly looking for ways to improve our sustainability practices. We believe in creating beautiful, high-quality rugs that are kind to the environment and the people who make them.
