About Ringsted Dun
Danish quality since 1947
Ringsted Dun’s history begins in the little town of Ringsted. It was here that Ringsted Fjerfabrik was established in 1947 as a subsidiary to Ringsted Andels-Fjerkræslagteri (1932-1980) with the purpose of utilising down and feathers from the slaughterhouse for the production of duvets and pillows.
More than 70 years have gone by, and Ringsted Dun today is a respected brand famous for manufacturing top-of-the-line duvets and pillows of the highest quality. We hold the deepest respect for our craftsmanship and traditions, concentrate on what we are best at, yet never stop to further develop and refine our products, with due consideration for both animals and people.
