A commitment to sustainable development
The Montalivet campsite and its team are committed to an environmentally friendly sustainable development policy. We firmly believe that every action matters, which is why we have implemented a series of initiatives to protect our ecosystem.
Join us in achieving our goals and minimizing our impact on the surrounding biodiversity. We also encourage you to adopt these practices during your stay so that together, we can create a healthier, more sustainable environment for future generations.
Our actions to protect the environment
We water our plants only after sunset to minimize water loss through evaporation. This practice maximizes the efficiency of every drop used and helps conserve this precious resource. Additionally, we have installed a drip irrigation system for more precise and economical water distribution, further reducing waste.
The nighttime marking of pathways operates on solar energy and uses low-consumption bulbs, thereby reducing our energy consumption. By using solar lamps, we harness a renewable and inexhaustible energy source while decreasing our reliance on fossil fuels. These lights are also programmed to turn on only when needed, further minimizing energy usage.
Waste reduction and recycling
We are committed to reducing waste through selective sorting and the recycling of batteries and ink cartridges. A collection point is available throughout the campsite to make it easier to sort different types of waste. We also raise awareness among our visitors about the importance of reducing, reusing, and recycling by providing information on best practices. Through these efforts, we help reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills and protect our environment.
Ecoresponsible household products
We use environmentally friendly cleaning products to protect air and water quality. These biodegradable products reduce the risk of pollution and are just as effective as traditional chemical cleaners. We train our staff on their proper use to ensure effective cleaning while minimizing environmental impact. Additionally, we encourage our visitors to adopt similar practices during their stay.
Renovation and reuse
Rather than purchasing new equipment, we prefer to renovate and give a second life to existing materials and accommodations. This allows us to limit waste production and reduce the ecological footprint associated with manufacturing new products. We collaborate with local artisans to restore equipment sustainably, using eco-friendly materials whenever possible. This approach aligns with the principles of a circular economy, where every resource is used optimally before being recycled or repurposed.
