Downia's Ethics and Sustainability

At Downia, ethical and sustainable practices are at the heart of everything we do. We are committed to responsible sourcing, ensuring that all our down and feathers are by-products of the food industry. This means they are never obtained through live plucking or any inhumane practices—our strict no live-plucking policy is a cornerstone of our values. By using materials that would otherwise go to waste, we support sustainability and animal welfare.

We also take pride in our environmentally conscious approach to packaging—or rather, the lack of it. By eliminating unnecessary packaging, we not only reduce costs but also significantly minimise resource waste. Instead, each product comes in a reusable bag, designed not just for delivery but also for convenient storage when your quilt is not in use. This dual-purpose approach reflects our commitment to minimising waste and promoting practicality. Additionally, any packaging we do use, such as shipping materials, is either recyclable or reusable, further aligning with our mission to protect the planet.

At Downia, we believe that luxury and sustainability can go hand in hand. Our products are designed to provide exceptional comfort while respecting both ethical principles and the environment.
