How Does RDS Work?
- Ethical Sourcing
Down is collected only after humane treatment—no live-plucking or force-feeding allowed. - Clean and Certified Processing
Feathers are cleaned and handled in RDS-approved facilities to ensure purity and quality. - Full Traceability
Every feather is tracked through a certified chain of custody and verified by independent audits.
From Farm to Fashion: A Transparent Journey
Transparency isn’t a buzzword—it’s built into every step of the RDS supply chain. Each certified feather can be traced back to its source, thanks to a strict chain-of-custody system. Third-party organizations like Control Union or IDFL audit these processes at multiple levels: farms, processors, and even brands like Orolay. That means when we say “responsibly sourced,” we’re showing customers the paper trail. And when customer wear our down jackets, they carry a piece of that verified story with them, feather by feather.
