Recent studies by the University of Exeter (UK) and University of Vermont (US) show that office plants can increase productivity by 38 per cent, boost staff wellbeing by up to 47 per cent and reduce absenteeism by 14 per cent.

With Australian workplace absenteeism costing an estimated 28 billion dollars per year, a 14 per cent increase in time spent at work is a significant saving not only to each business but our national economy.
