The Mekong Blue Products

Mekong Blue is a product with spirit and truly a pleasure to own.

Our 1st Weaving Center opened in 2003 and is now our Mekong Blue production center, employing nearly 30 women, with 18 looms and 7 sewing machines and a Dye Center. Our 2nd Weaving Center opened in 2005, currently with 13 looms and with 2 more looms in the process of construction. As of today (October 2008), 53 women are employed at SWDC creating Mekong Blue products. Proudly, we are a member of Artisan Association of Cambodia and Silk Forum, both local Cambodian groups respectively helping vulnerable people in handicrafts and showcasing quality Cambodian silk.

Mekong Blue has made a name for itself as one of the finest silk products in Cambodia. The women at SWDC are producing silk products that are high quality, unique and UNESCO award winners winning the Seal of Excellence for scarves in both 2004 and 2005. We work with attention to detai. Our silk are known for its durable solid weave and creative traditional and modern designs. Mekong Blue silk products are 100% handicrafted and made of 100% natural silk fibers with natural non-toxic German dye. This is the charm and spirit of Mekong Blue.

We produce a growing range of products and currently have over 200 Mekong Blue patterns and designs and encourage our buyers to create their own designs this developing further technical and creative skills for the women building their confidence and knowledge.

August 2008 saw the first Mekong Blue Cambodian silk scarves. Through our small-scale sericulture center, SWDC is able to weave scarves made from indigenous Cambodian Golden Silk. Mekong Blue is looking at a future where our products are not only made in Cambodia but also using 100% locally grown silk.
