There exists little information on species composition of vegetation in industrial plants in Slovakia. The most detailed survey is by Supuka (1985) who inspected 172 industrial plants. The composition of woody plants consists of forest and fruit trees (52.7%); plantings were carried out non-professionally, without documentation and without evaluating the health of the woody plants in the area. The majority of enterprises lacked a sanitary buffer zone of vegetation, and what vegetation existed was not cared for. The primary reasons for increased woody plants in industrial areas are biological - climatic, sanitary, psychological and psycho-hygienic. The present work discusses woody plant composition in 15 selected industrial plants (mostly in central Slovakia) from the view-point of species composition and quality. All data was tabulated. It is hoped that planting and maintenance of suitable and valuable vegetation should by law be part of any investment activity in future
