Our community

Business plays an important role in all communities and being socially responsible is just part of that. Participating within the community and supporting services and charities is critical for a thriving society.

We have been working with coastal communities and developing countries in coastal protection for many years. In 2018, Geofabrics won the AusTrade Australian Export Award for Environmental Solutions. Recognised for the positive environmental impact our Australian made Elcorock coastal protection system had in projects in Tuvalu and New Zealand.

Through our membership with Social Traders we are seeking to promote supply chains that drive positive social impact.
