The down and feather filling used in beddings, apparels, and outdoor equipment are natural byproducts from the food industry. The waterfowls are bred for meat purpose, not for their feathers. Agricultural waste has been significantly reduced since the down & feathers are used as natural insulation materials. 75% of the down & feather materials used for down products in the world come from China, since the ducks and geese are common daily ingredients in the Chinese kitchen.
