At Drouault, comfort is never conceived without responsibility. For over 175 years, the company has been crafting sleep solutions using exceptional natural materials, with one constant requirement: to offer lasting, healthy comfort that respects life.
It is in line with this approach that we have obtained DOWNPASS® certification, an international recognition that reinforces our clear commitment to offering down and feather bedding that combines traceability, animal welfare and high health standards.
This approach has made Drouault a unique company: the first and only French company to be certified by both NOMITE® and DOWNPASS® for its new natural filling products.
International recognition in the service of transparency
DOWNPASS® certification is one of the most demanding standards in the down industry. It guarantees a fully traceable supply chain, monitored by independent bodies and laboratories, from the origin of the materials to the finished product.
Specifically, it certifies that the down and feathers used by Drouault come from strictly regulated supply chains that exclude any controversial practices, with particular attention paid to animal welfare.
This certification is a natural part of the manufacturer’s overall approach to quality and transparency: choosing natural materials, but never at the expense of ethics.
DOWNPASS®: guaranteeing responsible down sourcing
In the world of down, the question of origin is central. DOWNPASS® meets two essential objectives:
– guaranteeing the responsible sourcing of down and feathers
– ensuring complete traceability, verified by regular independent checks.
For Drouault, this certification is a concrete lever for more responsible production. It provides proof where words alone are no longer enough, and places comfort within a sustainable and ethical framework.
Animal welfare, a commitment that goes hand in hand with comfort
Producing natural bedding involves a special responsibility. Comfort cannot be separated from respect for living things. By obtaining DOWNPASS® certification, Drouault is making a clear statement: it prioritises transparent, documented and controlled supply chains.
A commitment that is part of a long-term vision, where quality sleep goes hand in hand with quality practices.
NOMITE®: when nature becomes an ally for allergy sufferers
In addition to this ethical requirement, there is another major distinction: the NOMITE®label. This label certifies that down and feather products are suitable for people with dust mite allergies.
The idea may seem surprising, yet it is based on a simple principle: well-designed down bedding, combined with an extremely tightly woven cover, creates an environment that is unfavourable to the development of dust mites, particularly thanks to better moisture management.
No chemical treatments or additives: performance is based solely on the quality of the materials and the expertise of the weavers.
Drouault is currently the only French company to hold the NOMITE® label for its new natural filling products.
A more relaxed shopping experience, without compromising on naturalness
The combination of the DOWNPASS® and NOMITE® labels offers a dual guarantee that is essential:
– DOWNPASS® ensures the responsible origin of the down and the reliability of the controls.
– NOMITE® proves that a natural product, when well designed, can be suitable for people allergic to dust mites.
This means that no additional treatments are required on the fabric or padding. Comfort remains natural, healthy and long-lasting, in keeping with the company’s philosophy.
Labels and certifications: an uncompromising requirement
These commitments complement the certifications already held by Drouault, such as OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certification and the Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant (EPV) label.
They are part of a structured CSR policy, where expertise, innovation and responsibility go hand in hand. Each certification is concrete proof of an ongoing commitment to quality, safety and respect for consumers.
Sleeping well also means sleeping confidently.
Choosing Drouault bedding means choosing natural comfort, high-quality manufacturing and total transparency.
Because beyond softness and loftiness, sleeping well also means sleeping with confidence.
