Squeeze away your Stress

Stress is an often unavoidable part of our working lives and is a lot more detrimental to people’s health than realised. Over the past few years it has become a major factor in workers having to take time off sick from work, which in turn is costing companies millions of pounds every year, so every little thing you can do to help combat stress and keep your employees happy and healthy is good for your business.

Studies have shown that plants in the workplace can both reduce stress as well as boosting creativity and productivity, possibly subconsciously. When you’re in an air-conditioned office, especially when you’re too busy to take a proper break, plants can help by producing clean oxygen, so you don’t get brain fog. Even if people insist on working through their lunch breaks or staying late to stay on top of their workload, just a quick breath of fresh air and stretching their legs outside for a few minutes will help them to stay focussed and not get overly stressed.

Our stress relievers serve a dual function- they can be customised with your logo so you have an instant branding boost and the act of squeezing an item when feeling stressed can help boost circulation and helps to direct focus to the physical action of squeezing. Our range includes vehicles, animals and sports themed stress balls so you are sure to find a style that suits your brand. Stress relievers are a really affordable way of busting stress, therefore saving you money in the long run.
