After the Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA) developed the Sustainable Home Renovations Guide, Allianz and GBCA created Green Specs – a visual representation of the Guide, simplified into an interactive plan.
Both Allianz and GBCA are committed to encouraging Australian homeowners to turn sustainable suggestions into action. Green Specs is just the tool to help make that happen.
Allianz believes the insurance industry has an important role to play in transitioning the economy and our communities to net zero and to help them to better secure themselves against climate change.
Allianz is committed to supporting this transition through education, empowering Australians to make greener decisions and providing customers with information that can help them increase their resilience to the impacts of climate change.
In 2022, Allianz processed over 90,000 Home Insurance claims, that included repair or rebuild of the insured building as part of the claim. Many property claims may provide an opportunity for the industry to consider how best to assist customers to rebuild in a more resilient and sustainable way.
