RDS Responsible Down Standard
Down and feather from birds that were not live-plucked or force-fed, tracked from farm to finished product. A voluntary certification standard, not a test method. Compliance is demonstrated by third-party audit of a site and by transaction certificates following the material through the chain, rather than by a laboratory result on a specimen.
