why do you need plants in the office?

Most people spend at least a third of their day in the office. Some are fortunate enough to have a large workspace with large windows and plenty of light, but the vast majority of us are in smaller spaces, sometimes without the possibility of seeing outside for the whole day. Spending so much time in a place without windows or nature has been shown to have negative effects on metabolism, sleep and activity levels.

Some people deal with the stress and negative consequences of confinement with sun lamps, as well as decorating their workspace with personal items, but adding a few plants to the equation can do wonders for your health and the aesthetics of your office.

Benefits of having plants in the office

Also, all plants contribute to improve the humidity levels in the environment, so it will improve the dry environments of air conditioners and heaters.
