Most of the goose down and duck down produced in the world today comes from China. A smaller percentage comes from Europe, particularly from Poland and Hungary. Goose down also comes from Canada and the United States, in still smaller quantities relative to the amount of down that China and Europe produce.
We are often asked if one type of goose down is better than another, ie; "Is Hungarian goose down better than Polish goose down?" "Is Canadian goose down better than Hungarian goose down?", etc. The answer is an emphatic no: Generally speaking, location does not have any bearing on the quality of goose down.
In other words, goose down clusters of equal fill power will be the same size (fill power measures the size of the goose down cluster) regardless of origin. For example, an 800 fill power goose down from Hungary will be the same quality as an 800 fill power down from Poland or Canada.
