Tips for sustainable camping

Sustainability and environmentally conscious thinking have become very important not only in our everyday lives. We should also take care of the environment when camping, be it by reducing plastic waste, buying regional food or driving in an environmentally conscious way.

 


Keep sustainability in mind when picking furniture

How about having the perfect camping chair with you and doing something good for the environment at the same time? You think sustainability and robust camping furniture cannot be combined? We can reassure you – with the sustainable furniture series made from PET bottles by bel-sol, it's possible.

The ecological footprint is frightening: every item made of plastic has a shelf life of up to 500 years. That means that every plastic product that has not been incinerated or recycled is still there somewhere.

For these reasons, bel-sol produces camping furniture from so-called RPET material. This material is made from recycled PET bottles that are spun into yarn and thus do not end up in the sea. The yarn is then further processed into fabric, resulting in different types of camping furniture. By coating the frame in an environmentally friendly way and saving packaging material, bel-sol creates a sustainable production route that saves many resources.

Sustainable cleaning

Soap-free household cleaners

The cleaners are 100 % plant-based, vegan and free from palm oil, silicones, microplastics, mineral oil, colourants and preservatives. The packaging is made of grass paper and therefore also biodegradable.

Ecological sponge cloths

You will also find sponge cloths made of 70 % cellulose and 30 % cotton in our range to match the solid cleaners. They are printed with water-based ink, but you can easily wash the cloths in the washing machine or in the top compartment of your dishwasher. The cloths are 100 % compostable and completely decompose in 6 to 8 weeks.

Explore your holiday destination by bike

To explore your holiday region or do a little shopping for breakfast, you don't necessarily have to get into your car or motorhome. Spend more time outside in the fresh air and explore exciting destinations on foot or by bike. To ensure that you can always transport your bicycle safely, we offer a large selection of bike carriers. There is a suitable carrier for every vehicle.

Another benefit: You also avoid the tedious search for a parking space and often arrive at your destination faster than by car.
