Le Brasilia, a campsite in Canet Plage
deeply focused towards others

Our Commitments
Le Brasilia campsite, team
sustainable local interdependent

By booking your stay on Le Brasilia, you choose to spend a holiday on a campsite, which is both environmentally aware and kind. So as to have a positive impact on society and the environment, whilst being economically viable, our campsite with all luxury hotel modern conveniences, has produced 3 commitments which it embraces every day:

These 3 commitments are a genuine leitmotiv, for all internal campsite initiatives, in equal measure from an environmental, economic and social point of view.

Aware of their environmental impact, the Le Brasilia teams have implemented a certain number of eco-gestures, so as to provide the maximum protection for biodiversity, but also to contribute to sustainable development issues:

  • Waste sorting (glass, plastic, paper, organic waste)

  • Using almost exclusively electric vehicles within the campsite

  • Use of LED light bulbs for all lighting (the holiday rental park, commercial buildings, the avenues and paths on the campsite)

  • Timers installed in the sanitary pavilions

  • Putting in water-saving tap heads on all of the taps in the rental park

  • Use of Eco-certified products for maintaining the holiday rental park, the removal of pesticide products for maintaining green spaces

  • Regular monitoring of water consumption and looking for potential leaks in the mains water network

  • Researching solutions to reduce plant watering (new plant species, mulching…)

  • Active holidaymaker awareness-raising on energy and water consumption

  • Maintaining the dunes and the beach opposite the campsite (installing barbed wire wood fence and cleaning 3 times per week)

So as to encourage local initiatives and notably focusing upon local producers and craftspeople, every year we take action to promote their know-how. Whether it is restaurant recipes or during the weekly markets, it is vital to bring to the fore all the products from our culture and our local area. Thus, we have put in place a number of initiatives to assist them on our scale:

So as to encourage local initiatives and notably focusing upon local producers and craftspeople, every year we take action to promote their know-how. Whether it is restaurant recipes or during the weekly markets, it is vital to bring to the fore all the products from our culture and our local area. Thus, we have put in place a number of initiatives to assist them on our scale:

  • Showing local producers from the surrounding area in our accommodation brochure

  • Planning farmers’ markets right within the campsite, to enable local players to come and display their produce

  • Developing short supply chains by prioritizing the purchase of local goods, for the restaurant facilities and all other needs for our facilities

  • Developing apprenticeships within our facilities by establishing partnerships with local training centres for apprentices

  • Our human resources being one of our greatest treasures, we wish to minimize staff turnover, owing to training and the implementation of a profit-sharing scheme with all colleagues at Le Brasilia. The aim is to encourage them to become involved in achieving common objectives.

In parallel with these internal approaches at Le Brasilia, the PLA FAMILY Foundation is also committed around these 3 axes to work, on a daily basis, on environmental and social initiatives.

Indeed, each year, the foundation reckons to invest part of its funds to work on protecting the coastline. The board of directors unique to the foundation, will choose a given number of initiatives aiming to protect the coastal and dune ridge in Canet en Roussillon.

In addition to these unique operations for sustainable environmental protection, the local theme is also one of the commitments made by the PLA FAMILY FOUNDATION. Hence the protection of the heritage of the town of Canet en Roussillon, but also the fishermen’s village of the Etang de Canet lake, the Château Vicomtal castle, the Notre Dame des Flots church on the beach…some of the many locations amongst others, where the foundation takes on the role of a player in protecting the local heritage.

In the continuity of its initiatives oriented towards the environment, the foundation will also work with children in need, so they can go on holiday. Hand in hand with associations like the Secours Catholique, to enable the maximum number of children and teenagers to discover the delight of a holiday by the sea.
