Green spaces and quality of life at work

Long gone are the days when business premises were soulless concrete blocks. Now is the time to plant and create relaxation areas using natural materials. Find out more about whatgreen spaces can do for your employees.

Why create a green relaxation area in your company?

Installing plants in the work environment plays a vital role in employee well-being. The creation of a planted area in the workplace provides a welcome “nature” break. It also provides effective protection against the heat of an urban environment. Last but not least, the upkeep of plants has a calming effect and helps to strengthen the bond between your employees.

Vegetating the work environment and choosing natural materials such as wood creates an ideal setting for attracting and retaining your employees. In addition to optimizing the Quality of Life at Work (QWL), you send out a positive message of CSR commitment.

How can you create a customized green space in your company?

First of all, you need to call on an expert in planted street furniture, capable of providing a customized solution for your project. Thanks to a vast choice of quality products that can be combined and customized, you’ll get custom-made plant furniture and fittings: planted pergolas, urban planters, partitions to support climbing plants…

Depending on the amount of space available, you can provide a shade area, allowing your employees to get some fresh air without suffering from heat waves or bad weather. By adding one or more planters, or even a misting device, you can create a real island of coolness in the company. Complete the layout with one or two picnic tables, a few benches or chairs and you’ve got a pleasant, functional break area for your employees.

You can also personalize your green shelter by using the colors of your corporate identity, or by having your company name or slogan printed or engraved… In this way, you win on both counts: quality of life at work and corporate communication.
