These natural bamboo laundry baskets are made in Hanoi, Vietnam, by a small family business and are shipped, not flown to the UK to minimise carbon emissions. 

The business aims to create jobs for people from traditional craft villages; through improved income and support they can build a better life. They pride themselves on offering fair wages, a friendly working environment and clean, safe working conditions. They also promote reasonable working hours, offer medical and social insurance and a yearly health check, and provide financial support for workers and their families during times of illness
