A few of our prestigious projects have involved the carpeting of illustrious and historic properties worldwide. At Obeetee we take our social and environmental responsibilities seriously. We were the first in the industry in India to set up an effluent treatment plant and an air pollution control system for the smoke emitted from our boiler chimney. Today, because of this, the fields behind our factory are lush with paddy. Social welfare, too, has always been a priority with Obeetee. We encourage and support the local school system within the weaving belt. Not only does Obeetee offer the highest remuneration to the weavers, but also, uses the safest of dyes and chemicals, thereby ensuring the continuing health of the artisans. Obeetee has never been a company, which rests on its laurels. Progressive, dynamic and ethical, we are constantly innovative which makes our rugs among the most sought after in the market - unparalleled pieces, which offer a lifetime of beauty and delight. |
