About Eco Tasar Silk P Ltd. “Our mission is to promote a sustainable lifestyle that strikes a balance with environment.” The Tasar project was started as a livelihood promotion project by PRADAN, an NGO of national stature in India. Subsequently it has created many institutions to make the activity sustainable. The project is located in Jharkhand, one of the poorest states of India. “Tasar” is a natural silk and its silkworms are reared on live trees as they do not feed on plucked leaves. It is a forest based activity and its exposure to nature results in it’s truly multi tonal look which can never be duplicated by manmade fabric .This makes it a truly wild silk much sought after by connoisseurs. These all natural wild silk items are made by a collaborative venture of tribal silkworm rearer, poor rural women yarn makers and handloom weavers in the hinterlands of India. Each item’s creation is a source of livelihood and hope for a better future for thousands of women and tribal who otherwise have no wage opportunity in their remote villages and are often forced to migrate to cities in search of a living as many of them are marginal farmers and income from agriculture is not sufficient to last the whole year. The yarn made by the women is used to weave exquisite stoles and scarves, throws, sarees and fabric. The principles of FAIRTRADE are adhered to in the manufacturing process. No child labour is involved and utmost care is taken to make a green product. Natural vegetable dyes and/or Azo-free dyes are used in the manufacture of these silks which are then being sold worldwide through both regular and Fair trade channels. Eco Tasar also has an AHIMSA or nonviolent silk range made from verifiable manufacturing processes. We exports to USA, UK, Canada, Spain, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, France, and Japan. ECO TASAR is synonym to social accountability, love for nature and respect for human traditions. That is why it is sensitively and actively involved in a constant search for new opportunities that may further underline its mission. It brings contemporary designs for modern women and homes, using raw silk to make handmade yarn and then weaving it on handlooms, so that the product you buy is uniquely different in origin and appearance and it complements your sense of aesthetics and social consciousness. It is the expression of simplicity, purity and of the values of nature; it is addressed to all those who understand the meaning of true style… a style that marries ethics, esthetics and quality.
