Hence, this standard seeks to minimise the end-use phase’s impact through rewarding products that use less material, maximise recyclability, minimise hazardous ingredients/contaminants, and use environmentally preferable materials sourcing.
This standard applies to a range of panel board products used for interior fit-out applications such as interior panelling and as a component of furniture. This includes:
• Particle boards;
• Edge glued panels;
• Fibre boards;
• Plasterboard or gypsum board;
• Ceiling tiles; and
• Boards made from plastics and other polymers, textile fibres, metals, glass, mineral fibre, fibreglass, engineered timber and natural fibre products.
GECA is proud to showcase that fourteen of our standards are recognised by the Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA) under their Responsible Product Framework for the Green Star Buildings V1 rating tool—a testament to our enduring commitment to sustainability in the built environment.
