GECA's primary purpose is to create solutions for sustainable consumption and production. One critical part of this is to assess the main drivers and threats in the Australian building sector and explore how we can catalyse the reduction of carbon emissions.

GECA is thrilled to be one of over 41 leading companies to have joined forces with the NSW Government and WWF-Australia in a new coalition to decarbonise Australia’s building and construction industry.

As a world-leading ecolabel focused on sustainable production and consumption, we know how crucial it is to tackle embodied and operational carbon in manufacturing, based on a life cycle approach. That’s why we are pleased to announce our support of WWF-Australia in calling for more action under a renewable recovery as we start to rebuild from COVID-19.

GECA is a signatory to the World Green Building Council’s bold new vision for how buildings and infrastructure around the world can achieve 100% net zero emissions buildings by 2050.
