Plants for People

Plants for People is an international initiative, spreading knowledge of the benefits of plants in a working environment. Plants for People initiates and supports international research projects, collects and publicises relevant study results and communicates these results at symposiums and workshops. Throughout the last ten years, the results of various studies have shown that plants can decompose large quantities of harmful substances, improve the indoor air by increasing the air humidity, reduce the quantity of dust and air-condition rooms - without any technical equipment. It is much more difficult to prove the psychological effect of indoor plants, although people spontaneously confirm: Plants in offices improve the subjective well-being and the attitude towards the place of work, they reduce the stress symptoms, increase productivity and there are less health problems. The introduction of plants in offices or at places of work does not only have an inward effect, it also demonstrates an ecological attitude.
