Responsible Down Standard (RDS)

IDFL is also approved to audit for and issue the Responsible Down Standard Certification, which verifies the humane rearing and handling of animals in the down and feather supply chain. Animals must be treated with respect and must not be subject to unnecessary harm, including live- plucking, molt-harvesting and force-feeding. Products may only be RDS Certified if they contain 100% RDS Certified material, traceable through the chain of custody.

Canadian Down & Feather Company is RDS Certified (Most recent IDFL Audit Number: 23-498625 & Licence Number: TE-99972323 (formerly 005891)).
