Congratulations on taking the first step towards a better, more sustainable future
The built environment has a direct impact on people and the planet, so targeting a Green Star rating is a great way to ensure resilience, health and future-readiness.
To make it easy, we’ve created a clear set of guidelines that will take you through how to promote your Green Star project – from registration to the final certification of your project.
From the moment you register your Green Star project with us, you can start promoting your Green Star ambitions. This indicates to stakeholders and customers that you are engaging in the movement for a better future, with healthier, more responsible spaces – something we know more and more people are looking for in buildings and businesses.
To get started, select the relevant marketing guideline for your project. Different marketing guidelines apply for different rating tools. Please ensure you're following the relevant guideline.
If you have any questions, please contact us.

Achieved certification? Time to get a plaque and decal
We know that displaying the achievement of a Green Star rating is important for two reasons; not only is it a recognition of your hard work which should be celebrated, but it’s also a great conversation starter for educating the public and stakeholders who come to your building. You can choose either a plaque, or decal, or both:
Plaque
Our sleek, modern and durable plaques have been designed to showcase projects that achieve a 4, 5 or 6 rating. Some choose to showcase this in areas with the most foot traffic, while others hang it on the wall of an office.
A plaque will be a constant reminder of your project's commitment to creating better, healthier and more responsible buildings and places.

Digital decals
Our digital decals are another option for you to showcase your project's achievement. They can be easily uploaded to any relevant screens within your building. We offer a portrait and landscape version free of charge.
These are available for 4, 5 & 6 Star projects certified under Green Star Performance, Communities, Interiors and legacy tools including Design & As Built.
Digital decals are available for download in all project contact's Green Star Manager resource portal. By opening the certified project, and clicking on the 'Resources files' tab, your decals will be available under the 'Marketing' section.
