GECA & Growing the Green Building Industry

Successful building schemes have had an important relationship with ecolabels and have also influenced our criteria. Many GECA certified products are appropriate for building interiors, for example, furniture, carpets, floor coverings and panel boards. We have also developed standards for cement and concrete, waste collection services, steel and more. These are critical materials for Australian buildings and infrastructure. They are also highly intensive in terms of impacts, including carbon.

What our clients say about us

Being an environmentally aware business, we needed a way to ensure, adhere and implement sustainably preferable strategies into our business plan. The team at GECA is co-operative and their guidance ensured that we not only complied with green standards, but exceeded them. The process is credible and well-received in the market place and ensures that we are set apart from the not-so-genuine ‘greenwashing’ companies.

Fitting out such a large project with sustainably preferable furniture is rewarding. That a well-renowned and international company would choose to use GECA certified Office Link Group furniture is exciting and without doubt, a step in the right direction for improving sustainability in the workplace. The whole work zone looks great — the architect has done a wonderful job of creating the space. With the addition of the sustainably preferable products that are proven to improve the health and wellbeing of those in the workspace, it is now a really nice place to work.
