At Hammocks Australia our mission is to provide Australians with the highest quality and most comfortable and relaxing hammocks at great value prices.
We strive to continually improve the lives of the local native Mayan Mexican Community by providing sustainable employment and fair working conditions.
Hammocks Australia (Mexican Hammocks Pty Ltd) is an Australian Hammock Company, based in Sydney. Owned and operated by two friends with a love of Mexican hammocks - Mike Rennie and Guy Halpin since early 2009.
We have been importing and selling top quality and authentically handmade Mexican hammocks and products in Australia since March 2009. Based in Frenchs Forest, Sydney our range of authentic Cielo Mexican hammocks includes hammock chairs, spreader bar and traditional style Mexican hammocks. We also source from local suppliers hammock stands and hammock accessories, including hammock hanging hardware, hooks and rope. Recent additions to our hammock range include handmade La Siesta Colombian and Brazilian hammocks along with organic cotton hammocks and camping and tramping hammocks.
Yucatán, México is the base for all our Mexican hammock weaving and is done so by skilled indigenous Mayan weavers who have been passing their hammock weaving skills down through the generations for over 1000 years. Weavers generally work from home where working conditions are better and with more freedoms than in factories. Being hand-woven also provides a more environmentally friendly result.
We believe in Fair Trade principles and Mexican hammocks stocks Cielo Hammocks the only hammock in the world from a Fair Trade Federation Member and B Corporation company. They provide employment to over 900 families in remote areas where work opportunities are not always readily available and operate an award-winning non-profit organisation - Fundacion Cielo. This ensures fair pay and reward for workers for their skilful hammock weaving and helps to contribute to social change and development within their communities. This reflects in the resulting high-quality hammocks they produce for us as each hammock is made with love and our weavers are happy in their work. Your hammock purchase helps ensure this great work continues.
