To ensure the continuous improvement of best animal welfare practices in the down industry, Control Union performs audits to check whether your supply chain complies with the RDS. The RDS has been developed by Control Union, The North Face and Textile Exchange through a wide stakeholder review process, which involved, among others, worldwide down supply chain members and major animal welfare organisations. The scope of the RDS includes the full down supply chain from the farms and slaughter facilities (animal welfare) to the down processors and garment factories (traceability). Control Union Certifications BV is accredited by SLAB for this scheme under registration nr. CP 004-01.

Control Union performs audits to check whether your supply chain complies with the standard. Audits are carried out by CU’s global network of local, qualified and experienced auditors. Furthermore, CU can help in providing to you supply chain personnel with in-depth information on the standard and compliance requirements before the audit process.
Control Union can perform inspections for any required indicator from animal welfare to social compliance and sustainability and can assist companies in mapping and analysing their supply chains. We can also develop standards for other input materials.
