Collectie: Halal Design

A plush sheepskin rug is a beautiful way to add a touch of comfort and luxury to an interior. That being said, the ethics surrounding the procurement of animal skins is often brought into question. Sheep are not explicitly farmed for their skins. Sheepskin rugs are a by-product of the meat industry, and they don’t hold any real value unless they’ve been tanned. While much of the meat is used for food, a vast majority of the skins would be wasted. By using these sheepskins to create rugs, we minimise the waste associated with the meat industry.

This is reflected by the fact that each sheepskin varies in feel and size, as our rugs are not mass-produced. We only source our sheepskins from ethically and halal farmed animals that have been humanely and halal certified slaughtered. Our suppliers provide us with guarantees that our skins come from high-quality halal certificated farms. On these farms, the animals have lived good and healthy lives, with plenty of room to roam. We will never use skins from sheep that have been intensely farmed.
