Responsable Down Standard

Colmar chooses RDS (Responsible Down Standard) certified down and feathers, an international guarantee that certifies respect for animal welfare throughout the entire production chain. RDS certification ensures that the down used comes exclusively from animals raised ethically, not subjected to mistreatment, live plucking or force-feeding. Every phase of the process – from breeding to collection, to processing and material traceability – is monitored and verified by independent organizations, to offer maximum transparency and accountability. In addition to guaranteeing respect for animals, the RDS protocol promotes the sustainable resource management and the conscious use of natural materials, ensuring high-quality down that is high-performing and durable over time.
