Rainbow Collection Nepal - Washing handmade Nepalese rugs

Washing handmade Nepalese rugs is an intensive and interesting process. Washing carpets with the correct technique and right amount of materials can enhance the beauty and shine of the rugs.

Rainbow Collection Nepal-"The Manufacturing Process"

"Weaving Dreams" - The technique

The term carpet was originally defined in early Armenian times as "Karpet." The name has been interchangeably used by westerners who refer to carpets as rugs. Over time various weaving techniques were developed in other parts of the world as demand for these exotic handmade carpets along with competition grew. People started experimenting with different fibers as nature supported the industry with various natural raw materials. At Rainbow Collection Nepal, we have researched on these techniques and are able to provide our customers with rugs produced under most handmade weaving techniques that exist in the world today. The basic and most common techniques for 90% of all rugs produced under machinemade and handmade circumstances are cut, loop, high, and low pile. However, at Rainbow Collection Nepal we have gone the extra way to provide our customers with more refined techniques like Flatweave (Soumak), Shag (Shaggy), and Tapka. This way we have ensured customer satisfaction to many of our clients' end consumers as we weave a dream for their beautiful homes.

Discovering Ideas...AND PROTECTING THEM

Yesterday we finally finished setting up the admin area of our new office. The past few months have been hectic with the office setup and work at the same time. However i believe there is still a lot to achieve and goals to be set with our new business strategy. More to research and discover and a lot more to protect the ideas being developed. I think this is one of the biggest flaws of the Nepalese carpet industry that we have never been able to protect our own ideas and weaving techniques. That is why i believe our industry is so vulnerable to the outside world. The solution at the moment...to blindly trust people and believe that new ideas that you researched, new techniques that you developed will not be publicized to some other manufacturer. That is the sad truth of our industry.

New Location, New Office

Its been close to a year since we started building our new office and we are about 80% done. I have to say its been a hectic year with the move, the construction, and trying to handle work all at the same time. I have so many thoughts and new developments i wanna move forward with, but till our office is completely ready and everything is settled, its going to be tough to move ahead with these ideas. However, i know that once everything has settled, the business will boom in full swing. And the plan is to go after some of the biggest players in the industry. Yes Sir!!! So come out come out where ever you are, because you can run but you can't hide. Like i always say, if you are "THINKING CARPETS? THINK RAINBOW!"

BACK TO HISTORY!!!

We have seen a huge change in the handmade Nepalese rug industry since the 1980's. Back in the day, clients were so excited about these handmade rugs that they actually came to Nepal and Tibet and wrote their names on looms to reserve rugs that were being produced regardless of whether it was their design or the factory's. Some clients actually rejoiced at the sight of mistakes made on these rugs just to portray that these are really handmade and one of a kind. Now, clients are really particular about colors, designs, and quality of these rugs. They do not want to see major variations in color, designs, and very particular about the quality. Of course the industry has developed to attract more competition from China, India, and Persia. And we understand the value of the end consumer paying 1000's of $¥£¢ for our products. Hence to minimize the variance in design and color, we have decided to use the Galaincha software to design and produce graphs for our rugs which not only minimizes production time but also brings extremely complicated designs as close as possible to its originality. Use of technology in today's world has turned life and work into a form of basic necessity. We need to get ahead of our competition. With extremely competitive economies like China and India, Nepal still lags behind in terms of business and economic development. We at Rainbow are here to help you get ahead of your competition like we are trying to get ahead of ours.
