The Bodj fair trade basketware initiative supports a number of basket weaving projects on the outskirts of Phnom Penh and in the province of Kratie. A mixture of indigenous materials is used from bamboo and rattan to rush and water hyacinth – all are locally and sustainably sourced. Age old weaving techniques are used to create a variety of traditional and adapted designs and production is kept deliberately small-scale in order that the eco-systems in which the villagers live are not disturbed.

Bodj fair trade ironwork products are made by an ironworking initiative based in Phnom Penh. The project trains up a number of young men from disadvantaged backgrounds. Traditional skills are mixed with Khmer inspired designs and incorporate woven elements from our basketware initiatives.

Our recycled products are made by a fair trade project based in the north of Cambodia. Seamstresses collect and recycle old rice sacks into log buckets. Where possible every part of the sack is used. Even the smallest offcuts are used for appliqué designs and patterns on the buckets.
