The Responsible Down Standard (RDS) is a voluntary standard that incentivizes the down and feather industry to treat ducks and geese more humanely and rewards organizations leading the way. The standard also gives companies and consumers a way to know more about the origin of materials in the products they buy.
Down and feathers that hold the RDS certification have been audited by a professional, third-party certification body at each stage in the supply chain, starting at the farm.
