Getting Down with Down Inc.

Thank you, Midwest ducks.

The next time you’re snuggling up with a Unison pillow, take a moment to consider all the thoughtful steps that went into the making of that cozy-beautiful accessory. The list of elements and contributors is longer than you might think – and, true to the value system we work by, very carefully curated.

Allow us to introduce you to one of the greats:

The high-quality, sustainably made feather-down insert in every Unison throw pillow comes from a wonderful little company in Michigan, just across the big lake from our Chicago headquarters.

For over 50 years, Down Inc. has remained one of the country’s only vertical manufacturers in this industry. And we’ve had the great pleasure of working with them since 2006.

Their secrets to success? Partnership, sustainability, and a keen eye toward nothing-need-be-wasted resourcefulness. With Maple Leaf Farms – the leading producer of duck products for restaurants and groceries across the United States – as their parent company, Down Inc. has plenty of fluff to go around.
