Which plant is best for air purification?

Over the years, various plants have been touted as "air-purifying plants," however, there is really no plant that is inherently better at purifying the air than another. This misconception stems from the idea that plants themselves purify the air, which is not accurate. It is the microbes in the plant root zone that break down and metabolize toxins commonly found indoors.

What many people may not know about our team at Respira is that we began our business by designing, building, and maintaining commercial plant walls.

Using the Respira system, we are pushing the boundaries in the living wall market and providing the most advanced biofilter living wall technology available.

One example of this stands 60ft tall at Guelph Humber College, in Toronto, Canada - home to one of the first biofilter living walls ever built. This past fall, we worked with the team at the college to update and restore this monumental biofilter and we documented the process to share with you.

Plant leaves don't clean the air🍃

Plants are often thought of as natural air purifiers, and it is true that they can help to improve indoor air quality. However, the way that plants clean the air is not exactly how it is typically thought.

What is commonly understood is that a plant's leaves absorb toxins and purify the air. The truth is that most of a plant's air-purifying ability lies within the roots.

How much time do you spend inside?

During the winter especially, we find ourselves spending almost 90% of our time indoors. Our homes keep us nice and warm, but being cooped up for extended periods of time can have a profound impact on our health. While our indoor spaces keep the cold air out but they also trap the stale and stagnant air in.

Have you ever thought about the quality of the air you're breathing?
