Les Embruns is actively involved in and committed to environmental management, waste, water and energy management.

We have worked on a system to reduce water and energy consumption and to limit the campsite’s impact on nature. Thanks to this process, we have been awarded the Green Key label (www.laclefverte.org) and we intend to obtain the european Ecolabel.
In practical terms, here are the measures that we have undertaken :

Water

• The shower/toilet blocks, public water points and holiday homes are equipped with a water efficient system.
• Our staff have been trained to detect leaks.

Energy

• In our holiday homes and in the shower/toilet blocks we are gradually replacing our lighting with energy saving lightbulbs.
• The electrical equipment (fridge, oven, etc) in our new cottages are energy efficiency rating A ou A+.
• The public areas are fitted with self switching lighting.
• A key contact system is installed in the cottages, which saves on energy as the lights are only turned on in the presence of guests in the mobile home.
• Mit der Wahl, um sich zum Zertifikat Balance , hat sich unser Campingplatz gewählt, um die Entwicklung erneuerbarer Energien zu unterstützen.

Waste

• The campsite disposes of a recycling area.
• Dangerous waste and used cooking oil are stocked separately and collected by specialised recycling companies.
• To protect the environment, our carrier bags are reusable (not disposable bags).
• A composting area is at your disposal, which can be used by guests near the orchard.

Maintenance

• The majority of the cleaning products we use are eco-friendly.
• We do not use chemical fertiliser but prefer to use natural fertiliser (which comes from the waste compost) + natural waste from our animals.
• Some of our green waste is used for composting.

Environment

• We have planted more than 800 plants of various species.
• We favour plants that do not need watering.
• We have 2 secured tanks which help maintain the animal and vegetable biodiversity.

Customers

• We use recycled paper for our brochures and paper.
• We favour communication by email.
• We organise exploratory walks and nature visits.
• For your visual and acoustic comfort, our pitches are separated by hedges.
• Vehicles are not permitted to circulate on the site from 10pm to 7.30am.
• Bikes are for hire on site.
• In 2012 we will be installing a holiday home adapted for the disabled so we can welcome all our guests in the best conditions.
• We would love to hear your advice and suggestions so we can take our environmental commitments a step further.

Green Key label

The Green Key label, the first international environmental label for tourist accommodation, was created in 1994 at some hotel owners’ initiative. In 2002, it was adopted as the Foundation of Environmental Education’s 5th program in Europe. The FEE was also founder of the Blue Flag eco-label (of which Le Pouldu is a member). This label rewards tourism establishments for their dynamism regarding environmental management.

Choosing a Green Key awarded accommodation is your guarantee of staying in an environmentally friendly accommodation and at the same time an encouragement for the rest of the tourism sector to implement greener practices.
