About This Item
TS EN 1885 is a terminology standard for the feather and down field. Rather than defining the material itself, it establishes the principal terms used to describe and discuss feather and down, helping the industry use a common vocabulary for raw material, sorted fractions and related product characteristics.
Why these terms are separated
Feather and down are natural materials widely used in filling and insulation applications. In technical practice, precise wording matters: “down” and feather structures are not interchangeable in processing, grading or product description. As general technical context, vocabulary standards reduce ambiguity between manufacturers, laboratories, suppliers and purchasers by giving the same concept a consistent name.
What this document covers
- It defines the principal terms used in the feather and down sector.
- Its focus is terminology, not a material test method.
- It supports consistent understanding across the supply chain and related technical documents.
- This listing corresponds to the TS EN 1885 edition referenced to EN 1885:2018.
For that reason, TS EN 1885 should be understood as a reference for shared technical language rather than as a performance specification with numerical acceptance limits. For professionals working with textile auxiliaries and filling materials, a controlled vocabulary is important for classification, documentation and commercial communication.
