Rating system

Green Star is an internationally-recognised Australian sustainability rating and certification system

There are four Green Star rating tools, these provide a means of certification for building design and construction, operation, fitouts and communities. These tools have been developed by Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA), in close consultation with industry and government, and continues to evolve.

Green Star is a Certification Trademark registered by GBCA. Only projects that have been assessed and certified by us can use the Green Star Trademark or claim to be Green Star projects. We have strict rules and licensing arrangement for the use of the Green Star Trademark.
