Vest Illustration
  • Where the article is filled with crushed feathers, the label must say "Fill: Crushed (name of bird, waterfowl or landfowl) feathers".
  • At least 90% of the plumage must be from the stated bird of origin.
  • Words or figures suggesting one hundred percent, such as "100%", "pure", or "all" must not be used on products containing commercial feathers.
  • When down or any other fibre which is required to be shown by its generic name is a reclaimed fibre, the word "reclaimed" or "reprocessed" or "reused" must be shown immediately preceding the generic name.
