GECA Certified Cleaning Products

Plant based, biodegradable and better for business 

Why GECA matters in commercial cleaning?

In today’s workplaces, cleaning is about more than appearance. It supports health, safety and long-term sustainability.

GECA is Australia’s only independent ecolabel. It is also a not-for-profit program that offers trusted, third-party certification. This certification is based on whole-of-life product evaluation.

At Comclean Australia, we use GECA certified Agar Cleaning Chemicals across all client sites. These green cleaning products help us deliver effective results while supporting environmentally responsible outcomes.

GECA-certified products are verified as environmentally preferable, meaning they are safer for people, buildings and the environment.

You can learn more about GECA by visiting their official site.

The problem with traditional cleaning products

Many commercial cleaners still use traditional products that contain harsh ingredients. These can damage surfaces and affect indoor air quality. Some may even enter waterways or create residue that affects sensitive individuals.

Common risks include:

  • Use of toxic or non-biodegradable substances
  • Exposure to harsh solvents or bleaches
  • Chemical residue left on high-touch surfaces
  • Poor wastewater results after use
  • Excess packaging waste from non-recyclable containers

By switching to eco-friendly cleaning products, businesses can reduce risks while improving safety and sustainability outcomes.

The GECA advantage

GECA certification is based on more than just ingredients. It considers the full impact of a product from creation to disposal.

Each product is assessed across its full lifecycle, creating true sustainable cleaning solutions
GECA supports major rating tools including Green Star, WELL, NABERS Indoor Environment and LEED
Certification also supports social accountability and safer working conditions across the supply chain
These benefits help Comclean deliver commercial cleaning sustainability at every level

A closer look at the ingredients

What sets GECA products apart is their clean, minimal and effective ingredient lists. Each product is designed for performance and responsibility.

You will find:

  • Surfactants and soaps made from natural ingredients
  • Solvents derived from 100% vegetable sources
  • Oils and additives from certified sustainable plantations
  • Low-impact substitutes for ammonia or chlorine
