Daily exposed to more than 300 pollutants: Once more, plants offer a solution


Every day we spend more than 21 hours indoor. In other words, we are exposed to more

than 300 pollutants daily, the combination of which can be harmful to our health. Those

toxic compounds include formaldehyde, volatile organic compounds, trichlorethylene,

carbon monoxide, benzene, toluene, xylene and many more, and are found in paints,

coatings, glues, combustion sources, carpets, putties. Ferns, ivy, Ficus in pots or as vertical

gardens improve indoor air quality. Filtering efficiency increases when fans are installed

behind the green wall to draw air through the plant layer. Let it green!
