GECA Certification
Independently certified steel products for more sustainable projects.
Independent certification you can rely on.
GECA is an Australian not-for-profit ecolabelling program. Its certification process follows internationally recognised ISO 14024 principles and assesses products against environmental, health, social and quality criteria across their lifecycle.
For InfraBuild customers, GECA certification provides independent third-party assurance that certified steel products have been assessed against the requirements of the GECA Steel & Steel Products standard.
A select range of InfraBuild reinforcing bar, reinforcing mesh, wire rod and merchant bar products are independently certified under Good Environmental Choice Australia's Steel & Steel Products standard.

The independent assessment to obtain the GECA ecolabel independent tick is a robust process underpinned by rigorous standards, which look at impacts across a product's entire lifecycle, from the extraction of raw materials to the end of its life and conformance to the applicable GECA standards is assessed by a third-party assurance provider.
The GECA certification for InfraBuild’s select reinforcing bar, reinforcing mesh and merchant bar products is valid for three years from the date of certification.
