GCC Standardisation Organisation adopts Gord's GSAS as Gulf’s green building standard
The Gulf Organisation for Research and Development (Gord) announced that the GCC Standardisation Organisation (GSO) has officially adopted Gord’s Global Sustainability Assessment System (GSAS) as the regional Gulf Standard GSO 3000:2025 for sustainable buildings. This standard applies to the construction and building sector across all GCC countries, aiming to enhance the environmental performance and efficiency of urban projects throughout the region. The regional adoption of GSAS comes as part of GSO’s efforts to develop an integrated framework guiding building and construction practices across the Gulf region, ensuring a practical methodology for applying sustainability requirements within the wider Gulf Building Code. It also contributes to catalysing the implementation of green practices across both public and private projects while supporting sustainable development goals throughout the region.
