Virgin Media Television’s brand-new series ‘The Salvage Squad’ will be sponsored by Parkside by Lidl. It all kicks off on Virgin Media One on Sunday, 22nd October at 8pm.
In the show, Brian Dowling and his squad of sustainable interior designers, up-cyclers and tradespeople are on a mission to transform Ireland’s tired old rooms into trendy spaces fit for modern living. The challenge is they must only use second hand, free-cycled, salvaged, up-cycled, homemade or pre-used furniture, materials and accessories to create dream rooms in just three days. With a maximum spend of €1,000, Brian and his Salvage Squad are about to find out what extraordinary interior transformations can be achieved sustainably and without costing the earth. There are two room transformations in each episode, in a series packed with interior design flair, transformation, heart, fun, jeopardy and empowering sustainable take home.
Parkside by Lidl tools will be featured throughout the show, as the rooms are renovated in an environmentally friendly manner.
Sorcha Brady, Client Solutions at Virgin Media Television said: “The Salvage Squad is a brilliant blend of home makeover and sustainability with humour, drama and reveal. We are thrilled to have Lidl on board with their Parkside tools range, a most fitting partnership as sponsors of The Salvage Squad. The show is all about upcycling, redecorating, and revamping your space on a budget. Where better to buy what you need than Lidl's middle aisle?”
Orlaith McIvor, Senior Media Manager at Lidl Ireland said: "Parkside by Lidl tools have already impressed many customers with high quality, unbeatable price-performance ratio, a convincing range and attractive design. We really wanted a partner to embody all of these aspects to the nation of Ireland to allow everyone to tackle things yourself, at a low cost with high quality. We want to give people the security that they can do it themselves at any budget. Parkside is proud to be part of the Salvage Squad team."
Manuel Yoacham at Essence Mediacom, said: “We really wanted to find the right media channel and partner that would allow us to showcase the range, versality, and quality of the Parkside by Lidl range. Working with Virgin Media we identified Salvage Squad as the perfect vehicle to do just that. We are immensely proud of this work and excited to see the show hit Irish screens and help further elevate the Parkside by Lidl brand.”
