All sleeping bags from Helsport use only down that is certified according to RDS - Responsible Down Standard.
Responsible Down Standard aims to ensure that down and feathers come from animals that have not been subjected to unnecessary damage, and at the same time give retailers and consumers greater confidence in responsible purchasing. RDS-certified down is a by-product of the food industry, and is not picked from live birds.
The goal of the Responsible Down Standard is to ensure that the birds in the supply chain are treated humanely. RDS requires independent, third-party assessments of all aspects of animal husbandry and management throughout the supply chain.
