Join us for the official launch of Green Star Fitouts – GBCA’s new rating tool for the sustainable design and construction of fitouts.

Replaced every 5–7 years, fitouts are one of the most frequently updated, and least examined, elements of the built environment. Each cycle influences embodied carbon, waste, health and cost outcomes, yet these impacts are often overlooked or treated as short-term decisions.

Developed in response to growing industry focus on embodied carbon, circularity and healthier interiors, Green Star Fitouts provides a clear, practical framework to guide more sustainable fitout decisions across projects and portfolios. Importantly, it is the first rating tool to embed circularity as a core requirement for fitouts – setting a new benchmark for how interior projects are designed and delivered.

In this webinar, we’ll cover:

• Why fitouts are a critical sustainability issue that can no longer be overlooked

• An overview of the new categories, including the world-first Circular category

• How the rating tool works, including key Minimum Expectations

• Key registration details and transition timeframes

• You’ll also have the opportunity to hear directly from the team behind the tool, ask questions, and gain insights from industry representatives who have tested Green Star Fitouts to date.

Speakers:

• Kylie Fleury, General Manager – Forever Fitout, Dexus

• Paul Stoller, Director, Atelier Ten

• Sian Willmott, Sustainable Design Leader, Hassell

• Taryn Cornell, Senior Manager, Strategy & Development, Green Building Council of Australia 

• Gabrielle Pavicic, Green Star Program Lead, Green Building Council of Australia 

We will have our first Advanced training course on the new Fitsouts tools on the 28th May.  It will be open for more information and bookings shortly, but contact education@gbca.org.au to register your interest.
