The Outdoor Brand TNF Will Adopt The "Responsible" Feather Down In 17 Years.

< p > > a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_q.asp" > < < /a > >, outdoor brand The North FaCE announced that by the autumn of 2017, all the down products of the brand will achieve 100% of the down feather certified by "responsible feather down standard" (Responsible Down Standard).

To achieve this goal, The North Face will take a progressive approach. The down products in autumn 2015 will achieve 30% of the certification down, and the proportion will increase to 60% in the autumn of 2016.

In addition, the brand's down feather products Summit Series and all European products will be the first to adopt RDS certification of down products in the fall 2015 of the brand.

< p > last November, The North Face launched a standard called "responsible feather down standard" (Responsible Down Standard) for recording animal welfare information and ensuring the traceability of down products, which was then expected to be implemented in the global supply chain of 2014.

< /p >

< p > The North Face said the project was co operated with the control alliance certification (ControlUnionCertifiCATions) and the textile exchange (TextileExchange), aiming at assessing animal welfare in the global down supply chain.

Regulatory alliance certification is a third party certification body with professional authority in the field of audit animal welfare and farm practice. The textile exchange is a global non-profit organization dedicated to sustainable development and professional authority in the development and management of textile standards.

< p > "we give the" responsible feather down standard "to the public for the purpose of providing a comprehensive and more responsible standard for any organization seeking to buy down," said Adam Mott, The North Face, senior manager of sustainable development. "I hope that this standard can enjoy a wider range of positive actions to promote the improvement of animal welfare and the traceability of the down supply chain, which is far from our own strength."

< p > at present, although many outdoor brands are working hard to develop warm and lightweight chemical fiber cotton products, we are looking for alternatives to down products.

But there is no denying that feather is still the best product in winter, especially in outdoor environment.

< p > > a href= "http://sjfzxm.com/news/index_q.asp" > outdoors < /a > products used for feather down include a large number of products used for making down sleeping bags, down garments, shoes, gloves and so on. Many feathered fowl feathers derived from foie gras sauce are by-products of the goose liver paste manufacturing industry, which is mainly concentrated in Eastern Europe.

For decades, animal husbandry activists have been attacking the farms that make the liver a dish for mechanical barbarian ducks.

This barbaric farming practice has been illegal in California since 2012 and has been banned for several years by Turkey and several European countries.
