Indoor Plants





Have you heard about indoor pollution?

According to the World Health Organization, 3.8 million deaths are attributed to household air pollution annually.

Indoor pollutants include mould, building materials, home products, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and naturally occuring gases like radon.

NASA researched ways to clean indoor air in space stations back in the 1980s.

They identified air-purifying plants that are highly effective at cleaning the air from pollutants.
