Everyone needs some time out at work, a place to unwind and refresh your mind from the stresses of the day. A healthy working environment is crucial for both employees and employers. Promoting a healthy working environment not only enhances employee well-being but also leads to increased productivity, reduced absenteeism, and improved overall organizational performance, and lets be honest - who wouldn't want that!

Why not create a relaxing breakaway area for your employees by providing a Scribblewall breakout area. A place to re-energize the mind, take a deep breath and relax.

What are the benefits of a Scribblewall breakout area

Ambience: Use a happy vibrant or calming colour on the wall to relax staff and create a nice ambient glow. Green has been shown to help lift the spirits, and yellow is often referred to as the happy colour.

Health Benefits: Breakout areas often include comfortable seating and recreational activities, which can encourage physical movement and reduce sedentary behavior during breaks, benefiting employees' overall health. Get some comfy chairs and low coffee tables to go in this area.

Better Mental Health: Having access to a designated relaxation space promotes better mental well-being for employees. It can contribute to reducing burnout and feelings of isolation, enhancing job satisfaction and employee retention.

Improved focus and concentration: A writeable surface allows employees to ease their mind of thoughts to relax. Write an inspiring motto, draw a funny picture, or have an impromptu casual meeting and scrawl your ideas on the wall.

Boost morale: Bring staff together with the Scribblewall breakout area, having a dedicated space like this encourages staff association and brings the team closer together.

1. Ensure the wall is smooth and free from holes. Wipe down the wall with a damp cloth to clean.	2. The wall should already be painted in a neutral colour and lightly sanded to give the paint something to adhere to. (If using the transparent paint - paint the wall a colour of your choice and the transparent paint goes over the top!)
