What ecoPARKS does

ecoPARKS GmbH is a German developer of sustainable, modular commercial and industrial real estate, headquartered in Monheim am Rhein, North Rhine-Westphalia. The company designs and delivers business parks using timber and timber-hybrid construction methods, leveraging Open-BIM digital planning and targeting DGNB Gold or Platinum certification on its developments. It serves industrial, logistics, e-commerce, and production tenants across Germany through a portfolio of five modular product templates — ecoPARK (large logistics), ecoFIELD, ecoURBAN, ecoCITY, and ecoCRAFT — enabling configuration from large logistics parks to smaller craft-scale commercial properties. The group carries 15 years of combined development experience and has historically delivered over 2 million m² of space through its broader ecosystem.

ecoPARKS is a subsidiary within the Landmarken AG group and operates alongside sister companies Stadtmarken (municipal co-development), EPIX Sports (sports-anchored multifunctional locations, with a stated target of 10 sites by 2032), and Concular (circular construction materials). Revenue is generated through the development and long-term leasing of modular commercial properties, structured via joint ventures with institutional capital partners (most prominently AEW for ecoPARK Gelsenkirchen) and in cooperation with municipalities. Completed projects include ecoPARK Jena (2022, DGNB Gold and Brownfield Silver certified), ecoPARK Leipzig-West (2023, anchored by Skeleton Technologies on a 22,000 m² lease tied to a €220M tenant investment and 420 jobs), and ecoPARK Gelsenkirchen (2025, leased to Tech & Home Mate); the Hutchinson-Areal mixed-use development is in progress.

The business model combines build-to-suit development with multi-tenant anchor structures, where ecoPARKS captures development fees, asset management income, and co-investment promote economics on projects financed primarily through JV partners rather than balance-sheet equity. The combined project at Leipzig-West represents roughly €50M of investment (~30,000 m² warehouse plus 3,500 m² office), and the broader portfolio typically integrates on-site photovoltaic generation (e.g., 3 million kWh/year across deployed assets) to support ESG positioning and reduce total operating cost for tenants.
