What are the Benefits of a Smoking Shelter?

November 17, 2021

Despite the fact that regulation has been in place for some time, many businesses, including workplaces and venues across the UK, lack suitable smoking shelter facilities for their employees or guests to smoke or vape. 

Smoking Shelter – The perfect solution 

What is the solution? A basic covered building with a roof and glass or Plexiglas sides is a smoking shelter. Smokers will appreciate any opportunity to get away from the elements.

Smoking and vape shelters allow you to comply with UK regulations while providing a safe haven for individuals who prefer to smoke or vape. Not only will this assist in improving the aesthetics and presentation of your business, but it will also give a designated smoking or vaping space for individuals who desire to do so.
