Responsible Down Standard (RDS)

September 04, 2020

Responsible Down Standard (RDS)

As of 2019, Mont Adventure Equipment is certified by the Responsible Down Standard (RDS). RDS certification ensures that the down in RDS labeled products is guaranteed to have been sourced in accordance with the Responsible Down Standard.

RDS is an independent, voluntary global standard that ensures down is not sourced via live plucking, that birds are not force fed & that a birds welfare is always upheld.

Certified by IDFL
Project #: 005963

Current Mont down sleeping bags and garments that were manufactured before Mont's RDS certification are filled with down certified by the CFDIA. CFDIA certification ensures that down is not the product of live plucking & that birds are never force fed.

Mont is committed to manufacturing responsible down products.
