The benefits of indoor plants 

The presence of plants in the workplace would :

• Improved productivity at work : the study proved that the increase in productivity was closely linked to the quantity of plants present in the employees' environment.
• A reduction in work stoppages : this is confirmed for both men and women. Herbs significantly reduce symptoms such as coughs, itchy scalps, fatigue and migraines. 

Researchers believe that these positive health effects stem from plants' ability to capture air contaminants. They also help regulate humidity levels. These two factors are closely linked to dermatological and ENT problems. 

How do plants help clean the air? 

This is the principle of phytoremediation : Technology using plant metabolism to accumulate, transform, degrade, concentrate, stabilize or volatilize pollutants (organic and inorganic molecules, metals and radioelements) contained in contaminated soil or water (Source: CEA).

Plant characteristics such as nature, morphology, leaf surface and physical parameters (wind, temperature, etc.) determine its absorption capacity.
