Plants help reduce distractions due to office noise.

 

Strategically placed, plants quiet down an office. A small indoor hedge placed around a workspace will reduce noise by 5 decibels. The positive contribution of interior plants to sound absorption has been well documented in numerous studies including the work done by Dr. Helen Russell, Oxford, England and David Uzzell, University of Surrey, England. Although it would be difficult to measure the cost of productivity loss due to office noise pollution, one doesn’t have to go far to find examples! Almost anyone who works in an office can give account to being “annoyed” into taking a break due to the common audible elements of a busy office. According to the Associated Landscape Contractors of America, landscape professionals are replacing stale cubicles for “tree walls” and other innovative plant groupings to reduce this costly “decibel distraction factor.”
