Camping means vacation in nature
Campers love the freedom of life in the midst of a natural environment and they enjoy the unspoilt nature. Campsites create these special experience spaces for their guests.
Saving (waste) water and energy and avoiding waste are the focus of the EU Ecolabel for campsites. Campsites that want to carry the EU Ecolabel must meet 22 criteria. For example, heaters and air conditioning systems are not permitted in outdoor areas; lighting must be energy-saving, and bathroom and toilet fittings must save water. In addition, numerous optional criteria must be met, such as switching 100% to green electricity, using ecological cleaning products and other consumables. You can tell which campsites are particularly committed to the environment by looking at the EU Ecolabel.
Criteria of the EU Ecolabel for Accommodation Establishments
It is time to promote tourism in a different way! Because quality and the environment count. With the EU Ecolabel, hotels and campsites can offer an environmentally friendly and high-quality alternative to conventional hotels and campsites. Strict criteria that target the main environmental impacts of the services ensure that accommodation establishments with the EU Ecolabel are among the best on the market in terms of environmental performance. The EU Ecolabel guarantees in particular:
- Optimized environmental management
- Lower energy consumption and fewer CO₂ emissions
- Lower water consumption
- Reduced use of chemicals and pesticides
- Less waste generation and optimized waste management
- Reduced transport-related emissions
- Less food waste
