The main headquarters are now in Milan, where a team of designers innovates through a new approach to the traditional methods. Undyed raw materials, innovative weaving patterns and techniques are key part of the process. All cc-tapis ® rugs are completely hand-knotted by expert Tibetan artisans in Nepal. A strong respect for the materials and for the culture of this ancient craft is reflected in the company’s eco-friendly approach to every step of the production, ranging from the hand spinning of the softest Himalayan wool to the use of purified rainwater for the washing of the final products, making each one of cc-tapis ® rugs unique. No chemicals, acids or artificial fibres are ever used in the process. Far from mass production, cc-tapis ® aims to offer a tailored service to those who understand and enjoy a high-end product, where a three month production time contains a story of ageless culture.Federico Pepe was born in Omegna in 1976 and lives and works in Milan.
