Green Key Gold for Holidaypark De Krim
De Krim Texel has been working towards sustainable operations for many years. After all, this is inseparable from our care for Texel. These efforts have resulted in Holiday Park De Krim receiving the Green Key Gold certificate for the campsite and all its own facilities and accommodation since 2022. Clearly visible, of course, are the solar panels on the roof of the game hall at the holiday park. But there is more. Below are some examples of the sustainable business operations at Holiday Park De Krim.
Sustainable policy at Holiday Park De Krim
As at all our other parks, when building or renovating our accommodation and facilities, Vakantiepark De Krim pays close attention to insulation, sustainable materials and smart technology to save energy.
In recent years, many energy-saving measures in areas such as water, lighting, heating and cleaning have been implemented behind the scenes.

Some examples
- All the packaging material at Holiday Park De Krim has been replaced by a sustainable variant. In the souvernir shop, for example, old newspapers are used to wrap fragile souvenirs.
- In the toilets at the facilities and on the campsite, you will find soap in dispensers and these are equipped with a hand soap with a sustainability label.
- In the park's restaurants, many products with a sustainability label are used. To reduce waste, the restaurants serve a biscuit without packaging with your coffee or tea.
- In the supermarket and catering outlets on the park, products nearing their sell-by date are offered to the Texel Food Bank. This prevents food waste.
- Charging points for electric cars have been installed in the car park at the Evenementenhal Texel.
- In winter, the wild water rapids in the park's swimming pool are opened to a limited extent in order to save energy. A highly insulating cover system was purchased for the outdoor swimming pool.

Pride of the Park Manager
Sustainability is very important at De Krim Holiday Park. I am especially proud that we managed to fit solar panels on the roof of the game hall. This allows us to generate electricity sustainably.

What's Green Key?
The Green Key is an international seal of approval for businesses in the leisure sector that make every effort to preserve the environment. The quality mark is awarded in Bronze, Silver or Gold. Holiday Park De Krim has been awarded the highest rating: Gold for the campsite and all its own facilities and accommodation.
In the coming years, De Krim Texel will continue its efforts to further reduce its environmental impact at Holiday Park De Krim. The Certificate Green Key 2024 (pdf-NL) will help in this respect as the standards are tightened every three years. Read more about De Krim Texel's sustainable policy.
