BENEFITS OF PLANS IN HOME OR OFFICE
Plants contribute to a healthy environment
It is often difficult to completely control the indoor climate within an office. It can be too hot, too cold, too dry or too damp.
Furthermore, it can never be perfect for everyone: what one person finds too hot, is too cold for someone else.
In addition printers, copiers, computer monitors, floor coverings, paint and wallpaper release substances into the air, which affect the quality of the indoor climate.
The consequences of poor air quality are well known: irritated eyes, headache, skin complaints and dry membranes in the nose and mouth.
Not only unpleasant but also unhealthy.
How can one improve the environment in the work place?
One can improve the indoor climate of your work place by introducing plants to help create a healthy indoor climate.
Plants are able to bring moisture back into the air. They will absorb dust in addition to harmful chemicals, emitted from air conditioning and heating units.
It has been proved in many work place studies, that plants are responsible for cleaning the air of formaldehyde.
