Freshness Assured® Down

More than 200 years of experience ensures that United Feather & Down's signature Freshness Assured process continues to set the industry standard for quality and cleanliness. The intensive, 15-step process involves selecting, grading and sorting the finest quality down and feathers, subjecting them to multiple washing and rinsing cycles to ensure they're meticulously clean and truly hypoallergenic, and carefully drying, cooling and ozonating them to eliminate any remaining impurities. Laboratory testing occurs throughout the entire process - from the time down and feathers are harvested to the point it becomes part of the finished good - to ensure United Feather & Down's products contain the cleanest and freshest down and feathers possible. If down is not cleaned properly, contaminants like dirt and dust can lead to allergenic reactions, which is why the Freshness Assured guarantee is so important.

The Freshness Assured process has always been an environmentally friendly procedure from beginning to end, as the water used is thoroughly filtered before re-entering the city system.

About Lyocell Down®

Lyocell Down is United Feather & Down's exclusive, patented blend of natural lyocell fibers and Freshness Assured? down, resulting in a fill that is hypoallergenic and lofty. Made from wood pulp, lyocell fibers are all-natural and biodegradable, and blend seamlessly with down for a hypoallergenic, breathable, comfortable product.
