WHAT MATTERS TO US

We believe in people. That’s why we abide by Fair Trade guidelines and have agreements with NGOs and co-ops that ensure that the more than 140 weavers of 12 Northern Argentine provinces that are part of our team receive fair payment, and see to the compliance of child labor prohibition laws. Also, we are constantly committed to selling at the lowest price possible to ensure product rotation and labor continuity for the craftsmen.

Since late 2013 we’ve formed an alliance and a cultural and commercial partnership with the NGO Asociación Adobe / Sumampa, one of the main NGOs in Argentina associated with the textile world.

In 2018, the International Society for Performance Improvement (ISPI) honored us with the Kaufman Award for Outstanding Social Impact at the United States’ Embassy in Buenos Aires.

Elementos Argentinos is a Certified B™ Corporation, which means that meets the highest standards with regard to social and environmental performance, transparency and corporate responsibility
