Read moreWhy Plants?
What’s not to love?
Of course we would say this, but the facts speak for themselves and here are just a few to get you thinking.
But isn’t this the very least that you should expect from a plant company?
Of course it is, but it is only part of our service.
Our maintenance managers visit regularly to make sure that nothing has changed and that your plants are in the best possible condition, after all they are often ambassadors for your company, being one of the first things that visitors see.
Reduce absenteeism by 25%
Healthy air = healthy employees, it makes sense really. The impact of working in a more pleasant environment cannot be underestimated when it comes to employee satisfaction and research shows that there is a reduction in absenteeism and an attendant drop in healthcare costs.
Find out moreReduce air conditioning costs by up to 30%
House plants help to keep cooling and heating costs down by adding humidity to the room. Plants release moisture into the air through the process of transpiration, which is when moisture evaporates from the leaves. This can both cool and warm a room, ironically enough.
Reduce anxiety & stress by 50%
There is absolutely no doubt that plants have an effect on human beings, both psychologically and physiologically. One of the most striking results of the comprehensive research is the reduction in stress and anxiety that plants will provide. Plants make people happier.
Find out moreBiophilia
We are a modest bunch here at Green Team Interiors and with typically British reserve, we never like to ‘show off’. However, the subject of biophilia is something of a speciality of ours, so much so that we are delighted to be working with a major university on perhaps the largest study ever undertaken in the UK. Biophilia is based on the understanding that all humans possess an inbuilt drive to make connections with nature and other forms of life. Certainly, there is no doubt that people perform better in the presence of plants and we have written a number of blogs on the subject. One of the basic truths about Green Team Interiors is our desire to make the working environment as happy, healthy and productive as possible through the use of biophilic design and we continue to work hard to achieve this goal.
Find out more50% rise in creativity
Living plant displays, as featured in our range are known to improve concentration and boost creativity, studies show without doubt that people perform mental tasks better near plants and that young, creative minds respond especially well to the presence of living walls.
Find out moreReduce mould & bacteria by 60%
As well as pumping clean oxygen into the air, plants will remove toxic chemical traces and turn them into food. Research clearly shows that formaldehyde, benzene and hexane levels all decrease in the presence of green plants.
Find out more15% increase in productivity
Whilst debate may continue about an actual percentage increase in productivity, there is no doubt whatsoever that there is indeed an improvement. The most recent research showed a significant increase, particularly in problem solving and innovative thinking. Certainly, the 15% figure is considered to be conservative.
