A word about
our wool

Obeetee uses Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) certified wool to ensure that the material is responsibly and ethically sourced. A voluntary global standard, RWS addresses the well-being of sheep, land management practices, and the traceability of wool, which inherently impacts the welfare of the planet. Wool is biodegradable, recyclable, durable, and ages beautifully.Sustainable carpets made with skill, style, and intention.

EVERY DROP COUNTS

Mechanized Washing has led to decreased water consumption by up to 90%. Every building of Obeetee harvests rain water that is used to augment groundwater levels, approximately replenishing 23 million liters in a year.
