Together for the future

DIY and gardening just got even greener! Recycled, certified and resource-friendly. 100% PARKSIDE quality – at the best possible price. 

The ECO LINE brings DIY and sustainability together

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 thermoplastic rubber.

Certified product standards

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).

Guaranteed quality

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.

Fewer Resources, 100% PARKSIDE

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.

Made using recycled plastic from PreZero

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.

REset Plastic

In line with our comprehensive REset Plastic strategy, we are advocating the vision of “less plastic – closed loops.” We are thereby rethinking plastic and conserving resources. We are doing this through smart design, avoidance, recycling and waste disposal, as well as innovation and education about plastic.

What also sets us apart 

Our PARKSIDE textile products are also certified and meet important quality and production standards.
