Why have plants in the office?

Potted plants not only add beauty and aesthetics to the office, but also have many benefits for our health and well-being. Here’s why you should have plants in your office:

• Plants improve air quality by removing harmful chemicals and pollutants.
• Plants increase the level of moisture in the air, which can be especially beneficial in air-conditioned offices where the air is dry.
• Plants reduce stress and improve mood, which translates into employee productivity and creativity.
• Plants improve acoustics in a room

• Below is a photo of one of our projects, where plants not only add beauty to the interior, but also create a natural partition. This allows employees to enjoy peace and privacy, separated from the corridor and noise, which promotes their concentration and comfort in a friendly environment.

Potted plants and air quality in the office

The air quality in an office is of great importance to the health and well-being of employees. Unfortunately, many offices have air pollution problems that can lead to various ailments, such as headaches, irritated eyes and concentration problems.

Potted plants can help improve office air quality by naturally purifying the air. Here are some plants that are particularly effective at filtering and removing harmful chemicals from the air while also being great for office environments:

• Aglaonema (Aglaonema) Purifies the air from substances such as benzene, formaldehyde, toluene.
• Chamedora exquisita (Chamaedorea elegans) Purifies the air from substances such as formaldehyde, benzene, trichloroethylene.
• Epipremnum aureum (Epipremnum aureum) Purifies the air from substances such as formaldehyde, benzene, trichloroethylene, toluene, xylene.
• Areca palm (Dypsis lutescens) Purifies the air from substances such as formaldehyde, xylene, toluene.
• Philodendron (Philodendron) Purifies the air from substances such as formaldehyde, benzene.
• Difenbachia (Dieffenbachia) Purifies the air from substances such as formaldehyde, toluene, xylene.
• Dracaena (Dracaena) Purifies the air from substances such as benzene, formaldehyde, trichloroethylene, toluene, xylene.
• Ficus (Ficus) Purifies the air of substances such as formaldehyde, benzene, trichloroethylene, toluene.
• Zamioculcas (Zamioculcas zamiifolia) Cleanses the air of substances such as benzene, toluene, xylene.
• Sansevieria (Sansevieria) Purifies the air from substances such as benzene, formaldehyde, trichloroethylene, toluene, xylene.
