Discover our selection of promotional items to stay warm at the office this winter.

Winter is slowly setting in. While for some seasonal businesses this means a calmer pace of work, for others it is the rush period, the final stretch before the Christmas holidays or the end of the year.

Whether working behind a computer or outdoors, the beginning of winter is a period when morale, often at a low ebb, is accompanied by a drop in energy. The cold and lack of light are primarily responsible for this slump in the general office atmosphere… So, to counter the gloom of the cold season, follow the advice of our expert corporate promotional item agency to get through the winter at the office comfortably.

A WARM WINTER AT THE OFFICE

The ideal office temperature in winter

In winter, defining an ideal temperature in an open-plan office can sometimes be delicate. Those sensitive to the cold may shiver at the slightest draft, while others seem indifferent to sub-zero temperatures. Choosing an ideal temperature also means having to reconcile energy efficiency with comfort. Nevertheless, several studies agree on a temperature for a comfortable working environment between 20° and 22°C.

Essential clothing for working in the warmth

Beanies, gloves, technical jackets, and especially work boots adapted to the task are essential, particularly if you work outdoors. The right choice of workwear can have a significant impact on your safety and comfort during your workdays. Prioritize technical and breathable clothing to allow you to be comfortable at any time of the day. For the choice of your winter textiles, seek advice from our team.

Warm up with rechargeable hand warmers

There is nothing more unpleasant than having frozen hands on your keyboard. A real comfort for cold fingers, rechargeable hand warmers are an alternative for continuing to work comfortably even when temperatures drop.

Keep a throw blanket in your office

Valued as much for comfort as for solace, a throw blanket is an essential for long winter days spent sitting at the office. Whether placed on the knees or over the shoulders, the throw is the must-have winter accessory.

COUNTERING THE GLOOMY WINTER ATMOSPHERE AT THE OFFICE

Take tea breaks

Allow yourself moments alone or with colleagues to enjoy a tea, a good coffee, or a hot chocolate. Taking the time to savor a cup of tea offers a regenerative break. The soothing aromas and hydrating benefits of tea can help relax the mind and revitalize the body. Discover our tea sets specially designed for corporate gifts and offer your employees a moment of sweetness.

Go out and enjoy the sun

Seize the opportunity at lunch to go for a walk outside and benefit from the sun’s rays. Sunlight promotes the production of well-being neurohormones. Even in winter, leave the break room and head to the parks near your company.

Exposure to the sun naturally recharges your batteries and provides an opportunity for a little exercise. If going out is not an option, consider alternatives such as using a light therapy lamp to replicate the benefits of natural light. Take care of your well-being even during your busy days thanks to our eco-friendly promotional item lamps.

Brighten your office with green plants

In addition to purifying the air, green plants bring greenery and are a source of good humor. In an office, miniature versions can simply be placed next to the computer, while larger ones can serve to define spaces between colleagues. Small, large, prickly, or flowering: carefully selected by our business gift experts, My Gift green plants can be ordered from our team.

Do not overlook protective measures

During the winter season, make the regular use of hand sanitizer a reflex. By establishing hygiene measures such as hand washing, you actively participate in preventing the annual epidemic of sick leave. During business trips or when giving out goodies at trade fairs, it is not always possible to wash your hands frequently; hand sanitizer is a practical and effective solution to protect the health of the entire office. Ask us for your personalized hand sanitizer bottle to offer to all your employees for a healthy and serene winter.
