Sound masking is engineered to cover up the frequency of human speech and make conversations less distracting.
It reduces how far away conversations can be heard and understood by others.
Sound masking raises the ambient background sound to a level called “speech privacy” to help achieve the right “signal to noise” ratio.
An improvement of overall concentration, productivity and comfort are the main benefits of sound masking.
Sound masking can prevent distractions in the workplace, such as loud phone conversations, collaborative talk, an impromptu call for a meeting. All these distractions can break an employee’s focus.
Even extremely silent environments can cause problems, as the smallest disturbance can become a big issue.
Sound masking creates a happy-medium between loud, noisy environments and library-quiet workspaces that make people self-conscious.
Employee productivity can increase up to 20% when a sound masking solution is implemented.
More than 80% of workers say that they would be more productive if acoustic privacy was provided in their workspace.
It takes 15-25 minutes for the typical worker to recover from a noise distraction in the workplace.
