Office greenery can and should be thoughtful. Not only do plants make spaces more vibrant, but they can go to work eliminating harmful pollutants from the air.

Plants convert CO2 into oxygen and some can filter out benzene, formaldehyde and/or trichloroethylene.

Benefits of Office Plants

• Office plants will protect your health.
• Create a more cheerful working environment.
• Keep the office focused on going green.
• They can also be used as screens in open-plan offices.

There are a number of companies specialising in indoor plant hire and/or sales such as Indoor Plant Hire Melbourne and Simply Plants Sydney.
