BRAND OVERVIEW

More about each specialist brand.

01IPOTOOLSCompany origin 2005 · Brand since 2009

What is IPOTOOLS?

The group story began in 2005, the IPOTOOLS name was introduced in 2009 and the trademark was formally registered in 2016. Since then we have built the brand around welding technology, clear information and support before and after purchase.

Our mission is to make IPOTOOLS the first and most useful destination for hobby welders: affordable quality equipment, practical advice and videos, spare parts and dependable repair support. The range provides a clear growth path from an accessible entry-level machine for first welds to more capable semi-professional equipment for advanced projects.

What is GartenXL?

GartenXL has been managed as IPO Group's garden brand since its market launch in 2012, although it is not registered as a separate trademark. Its core specialism is lawn mowing technology.

Depending on the market, the range includes dehumidifiers, portable air conditioners and other products designed to make living spaces more comfortable, functional and organised.

OUR MISSION

The best balance of price and performance, backed by knowledge.

We build our range so that customers get the product with the best balance of price and performance in its class. With it they get everything needed to finish the job quickly and correctly: advice before purchase, clear instructions and practical content, spare parts, and support that stays reachable after the purchase.

OUR VISION

Become the European reference for affordable specialist equipment with dependable support.

In our categories we want to be the brand where customers do not choose between a good price and dependable support, but get both – in every market where we are present, and years after the purchase.

From welding technology to a European brand group.

Continuous growth, one category and one market at a time.
