Discover how sustainable sourcing is transforming the handcrafted horn and bone industry, empowering artisan communities and promoting eco-friendly practices.

Sustainable sourcing is a crucial aspect of the handcrafted horn and bone industry, as it not only ensures the long-term viability of the industry but also promotes eco-friendly practices and empowers artisan communities. According to the REACH Regulation, the registration, evaluation, authorisation, and restriction of chemicals are essential to protect human health and the environment.

Sustainable sourcing has a positive impact on artisan communities, as it provides them with a stable income and promotes their traditional craftsmanship. The Export Promotion Council for Handicrafts (EPCH) plays a significant role in empowering Indian handicrafts, including handcrafted horn and bone products, by providing support and resources to artisan communities.

Wholesale buyers can benefit from sustainable sourcing by ensuring that their products are compliant with regulations such as REACH, and by promoting eco-friendly practices in their supply chain. Sustainable sourcing also provides wholesale buyers with a unique selling point, as consumers are increasingly demanding products that are made with environmentally responsible practices.
