Choose Sustainability for the Long Term
With the all-new GGT range, you can now select flooring that not only stands as the most globally recognised sustainable option but also offers the durability and cost-efficiency of high-quality porcelain tiles (with GGT status). This ensures the most optimal lifecycle costing of all flooring products on the market making it the perfect solution for current, and future, environmentally-conscious generation of consumers.
Why Specify GGT-Certified Tiles?
- Internationally Recognised: Endorsed by major green-building rating systems, including GBCA, GBCNZ, LEED, Green Star, WELL Building Standard, and BREEAM.
- Independently Verified Sustainability: GGT certification ensures credibility, eliminates greenwashing, and enhances trust in material specifications.
- Exclusive to Tile Warehouse: The only GGT-certified tile range from China available in New Zealand—making green building affordable and accessible.
- Level A Certified: Meets the highest environmental and ethical standards, supporting compliance with Homestar, Green Star, and LEED ratings.
- Low Carbon, Low VOCs: Unlike soft flooring options, these tiles have a low carbon footprint and are free from harmful VOCs.
- Ethical & Responsible Sourcing: Manufactured in solar-powered facilities thereby contributing to an 85,000-ton CO₂ reduction annually, while adhering to ISO 14001 environmental standards and fair labour practices.
- Complete System Solutions: These ranges offer all-new IN/OUT finish. This advanced technology results in a tile that feels and looks matt when dry, with the unique manufacturing process turning them slip resistant when wet.
Designed for High-Performance, Sustainable Projects
As green-rated projects gain traction across New Zealand, the cost of sustainable materials has often been a barrier. Traditionally, green-rated products have been so expensive it has turned people off wanting to pursue the certification. With these tiles, customers can choose responsibility and economically – with even the smallest budgets.
They’re fast becoming a firm favourite with our customers.
The tiles have already made their mark locally, including Design Builders’ ‘The Rayburn’ showhome which recently won the National GIB Show Home category in the 2024 Master Builders House of the Year, and they are used in many retirement developments.
With over 2,000 projects across Australia and New Zealand integrating certified green materials, the demand for sustainable solutions is greater than ever.
Architectural Surfaces curated GGT range delivers versatility, durability, and timeless aesthetics—perfect for group housing, large-scale developments, and commercial projects.
