Indoor Plant Benefits
Indoor plants help reduce 'sick building syndrome'
Research has been conducted by NASA into the presence of Volitile Organic Compounds (VOC) in offices. Carpets, upholstery, copier machines and cleaning products emit VOCs.
NASA’s research recommended that the inclusion of indoor plants in the office environment would reduce substantially the amount of VOCs that employees are daily exposed to.
The direct benefits of indoor plants to the air we breath are twofold:
- Pollutants are filtered from indoor air
- Oxygen is released and humidity levels are reduced.
