The advantages of a duck down and feather filling

The filling power of down has 3 advantages for mountain sports:- Thermal insulation thanks to the air trapped in the down and feathers- Ultra low weight: down is lighter than synthetic wadding while offering the same degree of warmth. This saves even more weight in your backpack- Ultra-compressible

How to measure the fill power of a down and feather wadding?

The fill power is a measure of the down's thermal insulation capacity and its potential to ""trap"" air. It is expressed in CUIN (cubic inches).So, down with a higher fill power (higher CUIN number) will occupy more space, trap more air and provide greater thermal insulation.For this down jacket with its 85% down/15% feathers filling, the fill power is guaranteed to be 800 CUIN or more (European standard).

What is RDS certification?

RDS or “Responsible Down Standard” is a worldwide certification issued by an independent organisation to volunteer brands.This standard enables us to guarantee the origin of the feathers in accordance with our commitment to use responsible materials. Our suppliers commit to using only feathers from geese and ducks raised for their meat and slaughtered before down and feathers are collected.To find out more: https://www.forclaz.co.uk/what-is-rds-certification
