Cel A fast and objective measurement technique has been identified that can help the European down and feather industry to reduce costs by decreasing testing time and increase productivity. The implementation of this new testing method (NIRA) will represent technology transfer from the NIR industry to a more traditional testing environment. Thereby, its use will help to improve the working conditions in test laboratories in the down and feather industry and will lead to a marked reduction in chemical use. The net prospective cost savings to the European down and feather industry will be about 45 Million Euro. European down and feather products can be put in a competitive position and therefore imports from FarEast countries can be blocked. The new testing method is expected to be commercially implemented after12 months of the completion of the project.
