For the past two years, the Club has been implementing a waste recycling policy at its various sites
The head office, the women’s training centre, our training and pre-training centre are all equipped with waste separation bins
From 2015 to 2018, PSG collected nearly 3.4 tons of surplus food after its home matches and distributed it to charities from the following day
As a result, more than 6,500 meals were served to people in need (Société d’Exploitation Sports et Evénements (SESE), Parc des Princes and PSG partnered with the association “Le Chaînon Manquant”
Communication on the giant screens on match nights to encourage the public to sort the waste
In addition, the technical teams have created a sorting area in the stadium to recycle all the materials used
The Club has also installed 8 hens, which the employees look after on a daily basis
The aim is to give them all the food waste from the VIP lounges and players’ snacks
The waste generated by the henhouse is then composted to create natural fertiliser for our vegetable garden
The construction of the Club’s future training and training center follows an exemplary site charter with low environmental impact, setting in particular waste reduction and recycling objectives

All water taps in the stadium are equipped with sensors in order to limit the water consumption of the general public and hospitality
For its future training and training center, the Club is developing an exemplary water management plan
A water recovery system on the roofs of buildings, by draining football pitches and in buried storm basins will be put in place to contribute to the watering of professional pitches
Water-saving equipment and overall monitoring of consumption will also be put in place to guarantee savings in drinking water

Introduction of local and regional products based on organic farming in the Fan Zones
The Club’s future training and training center provides for a market garden area of 1.1 ha where fruit and vegetables will be produced to be consumed on site
This area will be developed near a 2.5 ha orchard, operated as part of an organic harvest, without pesticides, where pears have already been grown for 3 seasons

The new training and training center, whose first opening is scheduled for the summer of 2023, should be an “environmental example” due to the preservation and enhancement of the site’s biodiversity
The planting of more than 4,000 trees is planned with 3,000 trees already planted to date. Of the 74 hectares of the site, 30 hectares will be developed into green spaces with multiple functions: nursery, vegetable garden, meadows, wooded areas, traffic areas.
The landscaping project thus aims to encourage the reception of many animal species and to favour species native to the Paris basin.
