Mr. Theo Keller

 With our carpets, we want to make a contribution to social justice and the promotion of ecological standards in this world. Theo Keller GmbH is a founding member of the RUGMARK initiative against illegal child labor in South Asia. For more than 25 years we have been successfully fighting child exploitation in carpet manufacturing in cooperation with various carpet manufacturers, trading houses and the aid organizations terre des hommes, Misereor, Bread for the World and UNICEF. A supply of education and medical help makes the affected children believe in a better future.  We are particularly proud of our commitment to the RUGMARK Junior High School in Barahi Nevada Varanasi (India). We supported this with a new classroom, among other things.
