Appeal of Xanter’s down (2) “800 fill power achieved by domestic down refining technology
Another feature of Xanter down is the high fill power achieved by the use of outstanding hair refining technology. Refining is the process of removing impurities from the raw down, washing, and sterilizing it. The quality of the down is also affected by this refining technique. The down used in Xanter items is refined by Toyo Feather Industries, which has been manufacturing down quilts for 60 years (Xanter was originally an independent brand from the clothing goods division of Toyo Feather Industries). The company uses the latest machinery and technology in its domestic factories to enhance the quality of its down. The “fill power (FP)” is used as an indicator of down quality, and Xanter’s down has a fill power of 800. Generally, down with a fill power of 600 to 700 is considered to be of high quality, and down with a fill power of 700 or higher is called high-quality down.
