About Kerakoll Australia
Kerakoll is a multinational construction materials company, founded in Sassuolo, Italy in 1968. Over decades it has expanded globally, becoming known as an “International Leader in GreenBuilding”.

Australian Market Presence
Kerakoll’s Australian arm (BuildGreen Pty Ltd) is headquartered in North Melbourne, Victoria. Its products are stocked by distributors across all major states – from New South Wales and Queensland to Western Australia – ensuring nationwide coverage. Australian tradespeople rely on Kerakoll for high-performance construction materials (eco-friendly adhesives, grouts, sealants and waterproofing systems) that meet local standards. Local technical support and reliable stock levels in key regions help builders keep projects on schedule.
Products and Applications
Kerakoll’s Australian range covers all key tiling and flooring needs. This includes mineral and organic tile adhesives (standard, fast-set and flexible formulas) and cementitious and epoxy grouts (many with decorative finishes and 0% efflorescence). Advanced waterproofing solutions (liquid membranes, bandages and cement-based systems) protect balconies, bathrooms, showers and decks. The line also features primers, self-levelling floor compounds and concrete repair mortars. These solutions enable professionals to deliver durable, sustainable tiling and flooring installations.
Quality Certifications and Standards
Kerakoll maintains ISO 9001 quality-management systems and rigorous product certifications. Its materials carry CE and CE-MED marking and meet international standards for safety and performance. Kerakoll also quantifies sustainability: it introduced the Kerakoll GreenBuilding Rating (GBR) in 2010, independently certified by SGS. Most products have Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) and comply with ISO 14021, helping projects earn Green Star, LEED and other green-building credits.
Sustainability and Innovation
Sustainability is central to Kerakoll’s identity. The company’s GreenBuilding philosophy emphasizes indoor wellbeing, using natural-mineral ingredients to minimize CO₂ emissions. Many products are solvent-, silica- and portland cement-free, promoting healthier indoor air. Kerakoll invests heavily in R&D (for example at its Kerakoll GreenLab) to develop eco-innovations like geobinder technology and breathable coatings. This commitment ensures Australian tradespeople have access to cutting-edge, low-impact building materials.
