Certification
RUGMARK is a certification trademark , which assures importers and buyers that carpets with this label have been manufactured / exported by a company which has committed itself to work without illegal child labour , and which is subject to an effective surveillance mechanism .
Craftmark developed to help protect India's unique craft processes by distinguishing them from processes used in the production of products in modern consumer markets.
​
At a minimum, Craftmark certification prohibits child labor, and guarantees that hand - made aspect of the craft process used.
Craftmark strives to help craftworkers produce high - quality items for a competitive, global marketplace.
Through industry research , feedback from craft experts , and visits to production sites, Craftmark developed a collection of Certified Craft Processes . These craft documentations, in addition to Craftmark's standards and rating system , are the basis for Craftmark certification.
