What Eco-Cleaning in Action Means at Camping Aquarius

100% ecological and sustainable cleaning

Our entire cleaning approach is designed to be gentle on the environment while keeping spaces fresh and hygienic. By adopting 100% ecological and sustainable cleaning, we focus on choices that respect people, places, and the local ecosystem.

Certified products that protect ecosystems

We carefully select cleaning products that carry respected quality labels:

• Ecolabel
• Cradle to Cradle
• Die Umwelt beratung

These certifications confirm that every product we use is ecosystem-friendly and follows a circular approach to its production and use. In practice, that means prioritizing material health, resource efficiency, and design for reuse or recycling—principles that support a cleaner environment over the long term.

Water use cut by 50%—and managed responsibly

We’ve reduced our water consumption by 50%, a milestone that reflects our commitment to caring for the Costa Brava’s natural resources. Day to day, we use water responsibly and consciously, avoiding waste and ensuring sustainable management across our operations.

Cleaning that avoids toxic waste and water pollution

By choosing certified, environmentally friendly products, our cleaning does not generate toxic waste or pollute our water. This keeps your surroundings safe and helps preserve local habitats—from beaches and dunes to nearby wetlands.

Why Eco-Cleaning Matters on the Costa Brava

The Costa Brava’s coastline and wetlands are home to diverse species and sensitive habitats. In coastal regions, conventional cleaning residues can travel quickly through drains and runoff. Choosing products with a circular mindset and safer ingredients helps minimize the release of harmful substances into waterways and protects marine and wetland life.

Water stewardship is equally critical. Reduced consumption and responsible use help preserve groundwater and ensure that local communities and ecosystems can thrive through changing seasons and visitor peaks.

Behind the Labels: How Sustainable Cleaning Works

Eco-cleaning isn’t just a claim—it’s a system that considers the full lifecycle of products and practices. Certifications such as Ecolabel and Cradle to Cradle emphasize principles widely recognized in sustainable design and manufacturing:

• Safer formulations: Prioritizing ingredients that reduce environmental and human health risks.
• Circularity: Encouraging materials and packaging designed for reuse, recycling, or safe return to nature.
• Resource efficiency: Supporting practices that minimize water and energy use during production and cleaning.
• Verified standards: Using third-party criteria and audits to confirm sustainability claims.

At Camping Aquarius, selecting certified products helps ensure that each step of cleaning aligns with these goals—so everyday routines actively protect the environment you came to enjoy.

Guest Guide: Simple Ways to Support Our 100% Sustainable Cleaning

Eco-Cleaning in Action works best when everyone participates. During your stay, you can make a meaningful difference with a few low-effort habits:

1. Save water in shared facilities and pitches: Turn off taps while brushing or soaping, and keep showers efficient.
2. Use detergents mindfully: When washing dishes or clothes, use the recommended amount and choose eco-friendly options whenever possible.
3. Keep drains clean: Avoid pouring oils, harsh chemicals, or non-biodegradable liquids down sinks.
4. Wipe, then wash: Remove sand and food scraps with a cloth or paper first—your wash-up will need less water and product.
5. Air-dry textiles: Sun and wind are abundant on the Costa Brava—let nature help dry towels and clothing.
6. Leave nature as you found it: Shake out gear away from drains, and keep litter out of waterways and dunes.
7. Share feedback: If you notice a dripping tap or a leak, let us know so we can fix it quickly.

• Cleaner water, healthier surroundings: Avoiding toxic residues helps protect beaches, wetlands, and the campsite’s green areas.
• Comfort without compromise: Certified products are selected to be both effective and environmentally considerate.
• Harmony with nature: Sustainable cleaning supports a more peaceful, nature-connected holiday experience.
