EN 13536:2001 - Manufactured articles filled with feather and down - Requirements for clothing - Light use

Overview

EN 13536:2001 specifies the required characteristics for textile fabrics (outer shell, filling shell, lining) and for fillings used in clothing intended for light use that are filled solely with feather and/or down. Prepared by CEN/TC 222, the standard establishes test-method links and performance expectations to ensure product durability, hygiene and accurate consumer information.

Key Topics

  • Scope and purpose: Applies to garments for urban environments and light leisure activities filled only with feather and/or down.
  • Textile fabric requirements: Performance attributes for outer shell, filling shell and lining are defined, including down-proof properties, water repellency, and colour fastness to rubbing, washing and perspiration.
  • Filling composition: Producers must declare filling composition determined by EN 12934 and EN 12131 after sampling according to EN 1883.
  • Hygiene and cleanliness: Filling materials must meet hygienic requirements referenced in EN 12935.
  • Dimensional stability: Finished garments must maintain average dimensional change in width or length within specified limits (tests per EN 25077, EN ISO 6330 and EN ISO 3759 for washable or EN ISO 3175 series for dry-cleanable products).
  • Cleaning resilience: Values for water repellency and down-proofness are required to be maintained after one cleaning cycle when washed/dry-cleaned in accordance with the care label.
  • Labelling obligations: Each product must carry at least a reference to this standard, textile fiber composition, filling composition (per EN 12934), size, identification (trade name or producer/retailer) and care labelling (EN 23758).

Applications

  • Manufacturers: Use EN 13536 to define material selection, quality control acceptance criteria and to specify required test methods to third‑party laboratories.
  • Test labs: Apply the normative references in EN 13536 (EN 12131, EN 12132-1, EN 29865, EN ISO 105 series, EN ISO 3175, EN ISO 6330, etc.) to verify down-proofing, water repellency, colourfastness and dimensional change.
  • Retailers and buyers: Rely on the labelling requirements and declared filling composition to compare products and assure hygiene and durability expectations for light-use garments.

Related Standards

EN 13536 references and works in concert with the following standards (among others):

  • EN 1883 (sampling)
  • EN 12131, EN 12132-1 (composition and down-proof testing)
  • EN 12934, EN 12935 (composition labelling and hygiene)
  • EN 23758 (care labelling)
  • EN 25077, EN ISO 6330, EN ISO 3759 (washing and dimensional change)
  • EN 29865 (water repellency)
  • EN ISO 105 series (colour fastness)

Adhering to EN 13536:2001 helps ensure feather/down garments for light use meet recognized European performance, hygiene and information requirements, improving product reliability and consumer confidence.
