At RGI Home, our baskets are made to be inspiring, practical and fun additions to your home. But we take our social responsibility quite seriously, too. We believe that exciting and well-made products, sustainability and social entrepreneurship can – and should – thrive together. With that in mind, we relentlessly focus on our people, our products and our social initiatives:


OUR PEOPLE

The heart and soul of our success is the network of traditional artisans who create our baskets and accessories. We are nothing without the skill and dedication of these craftspeople, working across the globe on their time-honored traditions in countries such as the Philippines, Vietnam and China.

To support these artists, we are committed to strengthening our ties to their local communities, creating jobs, making connections and giving back whenever possible. We seek to grow our brand by partnering with others whose intentions are to go beyond themselves to embrace local community building, social support networks, innovation and entrepreneurship. Supporting local artisans also keeps ancient harvesting and weaving traditions alive, helping ensure these will not be lost to future generations.

OUR PRODUCTS

Whenever possible, we strive to use sustainably grown and harvested natural materials. Many of our products are made using leaves, fibers and roots from native plants. Sustainably grown water hyacinth, seagrass, rattan and bacbac leaf are just a few of the many natural plants and materials our artisans use to create functional and decorative baskets. Many of these plants grow wild in nature and need to be harvested to avoid overgrowth.

Our commitment to sustainability extends far beyond the creation of our baskets and accessories. We embrace the concept of “reduce, reuse, recycle” in every aspect of our business, from reducing packaging materials to the use of recyclable hang tags.

OUR INITIATIVES

We are committed to providing jobs for artisans around the globe, as well as supporting programs for the homeless and women’s rights, and we advocate for social change and contribute to resources that provide vital care to children.

We passionately believe that partnering with our artisans and their communities helps us to create better products that look and feel special inside your home.
