MONGOLIAN MADE WOOLCRAFTS

Picture
Tsagaan Alt is a non-profit store and all products sold in Tsagaan Alt are made by home producers who have received their training through the Wool Processing and Marketing Project (WPMP), one of the four projects supported by the Norwegian Lutheran Mission (NLM) in Mongolia.

The Tsagaan Alt Wool Shop opened on the 19th of November 2001 and, since that time, has sold high quality felt and wool craft products to foreign tourists, expatriates living in Mongolia and Mongolians.​

​Tsagaan Alt is managed by the Nooson Zangilaa Cooperative Union (CU). The CU was established through the support of WPMP and NLM in June 2006, to coordinate and unite the activities of 12 production Cooperatives from Ulaanbaatar and Darkhan cities.These Cooperatives are made up of 250 home producers who have all come from disadvantaged backgrounds and all the products sold through the Cooperative Union and Tsagaan Alt provides a valuable income source and opportunity to our producers. These producers have been trained in felt and spinning methods over 10 years through the support of NLM Mongolia.

Quality

The products in the shop have gone through a strict quality control process and are sold in at fair prices. All goods are made and processed from natural, raw materials sourced entirely from within Mongolia. The production of felt is based on traditional environmentally friendly Mongolian techniques. Everything is done by hand, from the laborious cleaning of the wool to the demanding felting process.

AWArds

Tsagaan Alt and the Cooperative Union have also participated in domestic exhibitions in conjunction with bodies such as the Mongolian National Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MNCCI). At these events, the products have received numerous awards and recognition such as Mongolian ‘Best 99 products 2005 & 2007’, ‘Green Label’ for eco product 2006 and Prize for Export 2007, UNESCO Award of Excellence for handicraft products 2008, 2010 east Asia Program, and Silver Medal for Korea International Women’s Invention Exposition 2011.
