Feel-good comfort with plaids & pillows

T'RU Sustainable Handmade

When you buy a T'RU blanket, you're not only doing something good for yourself, you're supporting and helping women and their families in Bolivia.
T'RU is a Swiss Fair Trade Brand whose main goal is to support the alpaca weaving art of 700 women from El Alto la Paz in Bolivia. Knitting and weaving are important sources of income for these women, as they have few opportunities for sustainable income in Bolivia.
Each T'RU product is made purely by hand and in a gentle way with respect for the environment. The plaids are characterized by the best quality and fluffy softness, proving the craftsmanship of Bolivian women, knitted and woven by hand with great attention to detail.  
  The wool used comes from alpaca animals that live freely in their natural habitat and are sheared twice a year for the extraction of alpaca wool. Alpaca wool is especially suitable for people with allergies to the wool wax lanolin.

Lentes al Instante

Our partnership with Lentes al Instante in Switzerland allowed us to make a dream of T'RU become reality!

For the first time in their lives our knitters/weavers and their families were allowed to visit an ophthalmologist. T'RU took over the costs for the glasses adapted to their visual handicaps. For 55 family members this means to see 'sharp' again! For many we could improve the living conditions sustainably as well as support them in their working abilities. Especially for the many children, 'glasses' also mean a great help in school and their learning process.

We are very grateful for all the help and looking forward to extant our sustainable support in El Alto, La Paz, Bolivia!
