Bourges Berry Tourisme is committed to a resolutely sustainable approach through concrete actions for a safer and more preserved environment.

Internal function

  • Lights and appliances (computer, televisions, etc.) are systematically switched off outside the opening hours of the Tourist Office.
  • A reversible heat pump (summer/winter) allows us to maintain a reasonable temperature within the reception area.
  • We recycle printed papers for our in-house and draft printing.
  • We sort and recycle used flyers, boxes and brochures.
  • We recycle our used cartridges through local associations.
  • We prioritize the use of rechargeable batteries. If this is not possible, used batteries are taken to a collection and recycling point.

Our publications

  • We work primarily with FSC and PEFC certified service providers and favor local businesses.
  • We adjust the quantities of brochures published as best we can, thanks to optimized stock management and alert thresholds.
  • A distribution plan for professionals helps avoid wasting tourist documentation and guarantees the proper use of printed stock.
  • All our brochures are available for free download from our website to limit printing.
  • Our website is optimized for smartphone display so that our visitors can navigate without a paper brochure.

Our tourist products and offers

  • We promote crafts and local producers who respect the environment (Label Rouge, certified organic, produced in Berry or Centre Val de Loire, etc.) and regularly order small quantities in order to avoid losses of food and perishable goods.
  • The shop's customers are made aware of ecology (Kraft bags only on request, printed receipt only on request as well).
  • Our Tourist Office has the Accueil Vélo label, as such we offer cycle routes and recommend gentle cycling circuits to our visitors.
