FOREWORD

ANNA VEDA Carpet Manufactory is a manufacturer of high-quality, exclusively hand-crafted carpets.

As ANNA VEDA Carpet Manufactory, all our carpets are manufactured under ecological and socially sustainable factors:
For example, we only use high-quality dyes and materials that do not burden the environment at all. We also see our employees, workers and expert knotters as very important partners, with whom we can realize our high quality standards.

All this is necessary so that each of our customers can realize their individual carpets.

Custom-Made Carpets

Industry 4.0 for handcrafted carpets - resolving the demands for personal individuality.

Handcrafted carpets are very complex, with their almost endless combinations in colors, materials and structures configured and visualized online.
Our task in the development of ANNA VEDA was to obtain the optimal visualization of the desired carpet and calibrated control in the manufactory, especially for color accuracy.

The ANNA VEDA Shop is aimed at professional traders and interior designers who want to easily implement their customer requirements and visualize them in a way that makes them saleable. With the ANNA VEDA system, complicated and long coordination processes between the manufactory, importer, trade and consumer are eliminated. A simple order via the shop is sufficient and production begins immediately - safe and reliable in color and quality.

The beginnings of this technology began around 1992. At that time - still without the internet - André Kochmann developed the Crossbreed software for individual dyeing of carpets and made it accessible to the trade. In addition, the first photorealistic simulations of the products were created in the mid-90s, which the trade used at the time for product advertising.

Even then, as it is today, it is important that what you see is also what you eventually get (WYSIWYG - what you see is what you get). Developing and operating such a complex system therefore requires production experience down to the last detail and the connection to one's own controllable production as a guarantee for the goal - the individual carpet masterpiece.

We are Anna Veda

Competence already in the 2nd generation.

Sunny Harjani (Dhirendra) started in the service industry at a young age. He joined his father in the first chemical cleaning in Nepal called MYSHOP at the age of 16. After working in the chemical cleaning for a few years, he ventured into the founding of the first Wool Dye House in Nepal in the late 70s. The company soon became very popular with the Tibetan carpet manufacturers. He learned the combination of colors with practice and experience and developed into a self-taught Dye Master for natural fibers such as wool, silk, nettle and cotton. Dyes from world-renowned companies such as Archroma (Sandoz), Huntsman (Ciba) and Dystar are used. All dyes used are azo-free and OEKO-TEX standard.
Until the early 1980s, carpets, although hand-knotted in Nepal, were sent to Germany or Switzerland to be washed and processed. Recognizing this opportunity, he founded the first carpet washing/processing plant in Nepal in the early 1980s. He developed different types of washes with high luster and softness including Antique Washes, Tea Wash & Herbal Wash.
Over the years, many changes and fine-tuning have been made in the dyeing and washing process to stay at the high level of market demand for colorfastness as well as shine of the carpets.

Johnny & Tony Harjani, sons of Sunny Harjani, joined the family business in mid-2006. After some training, they learned various dyeing and process flows from their father. In 2017 they ventured into wool spinning. Their semi-worsted spinning mill is located in Hetauda in southern Nepal and has a capacity of 30 tons per month. Tibetan wool is imported from Tibet and then spun into yarns needed for carpets.

André Kochmann was managing partner of New Oriental Carpet GmbH until 2000, focusing on the production and marketing of handcrafted carpets from Nepal and India with a market volume of up to 250,000 m² per year at its peak.
