Bamboo House India established in the year 2006 with an aim of providing sustainable livelihood opportunities to rural artisans and craftsmen in the bamboo sector through appropriate measures.

Our motive is to create a sustainable domestic and overseas market for bamboo products made by tribal artisans across the country and to find fair trade buyers willing to support these artisans’ products.

We work with tribal artisans and craftsmen in the forest areas and provide them with training to make marketable products suiting customer requirements thus maintaining acceptable quality. We educate and coordinate with the artisan and help them to systemize the entire process of training, production and marketing which are all important stages in the bamboo production chain.

Support through training programs

Using our limited resources and manpower, we help re-structure the training program and help design new training module(s). Since bamboo sector being distinctly unique in its own way we design our own ways to train the artisan’s. We try to build the entrepreneurship skills of the local to make the artisans truly independent and their craft self-sustaining.

Building production quality and reliability

In order to compete in the increasingly undifferentiated handicrafts sector and satisfy the demanding quality and price-point requirements, we educate the tribal craftsmen to make products more cost-efficient and institute quality consciousness related to market needs. We assist them to adapt the standards as well as build awareness of techniques for more profitable production.

Creating markets and awareness

Our main area of concentration is to create awareness and markets for bamboo-based products. We coordinate and facilitate artisan presentations at various forums to create awareness of the bamboo craft and its livelihood implications. We assist the community to explore the possibility of marketing bamboo products through various schemes and corporate gifts programs. We participate at various exhibitions across the country to educate the general public about the vast potential of bamboo products.
