GBAC STAR^TM is the cleaning industry’s only outbreak prevention, response, and recovery accreditation. For facilities and other places, you visit, GBAC STAR^TM is an important indicator of their thoroughness with cleaning, disinfection, and prevention.

GBAC stands for "Global Biorisk Advisory Council^TM" and is a specialty division of ISSA, the world’s leading trade association for the cleaning industry.
