You probably see plants in office spaces almost everywhere, whether they’re real or artificial. They’re used to create a natural look and contribute to a relaxing environment. But have you considered the benefits of greenery that go beyond visual appearance? Our design partners at Mizetto place a high value on sustainability and the true value of greenery in your workspace, and they offer multiple reasons for adding plants to your office environment.

Why Add More Plants + Flowers To Your Office?

As the Mizetto people note, plants in the room create a welcoming environment that encourages creativity and reduces stress. It seems like a small thing, but that can actually improve the mental and physical health of your employees. Plants also add color and life to an office that would otherwise seem sterile and boring, and brings an outdoor feel to an indoor space.

Plants also contribute to better physical health through improved air quality. They naturally purify the air, and they produce oxygen and reduce carbon dioxide levels in the room. As this post from Leaflike points out, plants can also help to absorb sound in a room, making for a quieter and less distracting environment.

What’s more, plants in an office or workspace can actually contribute to improved productivity and concentration. In addition to being a calming element of the room environment, research shows that plants in a workspace can help us to focus and effectively process information.

Entities no lesser than NASA have done research on the benefits of plants in the workspace, but chances are these benefits may be inherently obvious to you. That said, if you’re convinced that adding greenery to your workplace is a great idea, you have a number of possibilities for your plants’ placement and arrangement.

Mizetto offers a number of planting placement options, including modular plant holders in a variety of colors and designs, containers for high level storage, multi-level shelving, recyclable bins, and much more. If you’re going to add greenery to your working spaces, it’s well worth taking the time to strategically place your greenery for maximum benefit.
