We produce more than 55% of the products in the PARKSIDE ECO LINE using packaging waste. To conserve valuable resources, we deliberately use fewer different materials – e.g. less black plastic and no thermoplastic rubber.
The fact that we primarily process packaging waste for our ECO LINE is certified in accordance with the criteria of the Global Recycled Standard (GRS).
ECO LINE offers you reliable quality, durability, and user-friendliness. Every product is tested and guaranteed for its weather resistance, frost protection, and UV resistance. ECO LINE products do not differ in price to other PARKSIDE products.
We want every ECO LINE product to provide you the same quality as the PARKSIDE products already established in the same category. Therefore, we inspect all our products according to the same strict criteria and test their durability in line with established standards. So nothing changes for you in terms of quality. But by choosing ECO LINE you help us to reduce our dependency on raw materials and support a sustainable production cycle.
ECO LINE makes a statement and adds a whole new look to the product range. Pop into your local Lidl or Kaufland store to take a look! Our range of DIY and gardening products made from packaging waste is getting bigger and bigger.
Our commitment to greater sustainability goes even further: PARKSIDE products are made using recycled plastic from PreZero. We are therefore giving old packaging from private households a new lease of life. With a bit of luck, you’ll find them at your Lidl or Kaufland store.
Our PARKSIDE textile products are also certified and meet important quality and production standards.

Products certified according to the Global Recycled Standard contain recycled material that has been independently verified at every stage of the supply chain, from the source to the end product. The facilities, from the source to the final supplier, have also met social, environmental, and chemical requirements.

At PARKSIDE, we are always working to add even more certified alternatives to our assortment – by reducing the use of valuable resources even more and further increasing the proportion of recycled materials, for example.
