Sound Masking Design and Installation

Sound masking provides voice privacy, confidentiality, and protection of proprietary information. Studies indicate employee productivity increases up to 15% after installation of sound masking. How is this possible? Sound masking greatly diminishes distractions by extraneous noises in the open workplace allowing employees to concentrate more of their time on the task before them! It provides a random sound that does not carry information, and is non-directional and harmoniously uniform.

Whether it be an open plan environment, a series of private offices, a call center full of customer service associates, a healthcare facility, or any other work environment, annoyances are real, frequent, and costly. Industry experts and authors of "People, Productivity, and Teams" Demarco & Lister estimate that "It takes ten minutes to regain concentration following a distraction". The dollar figure attached to loss of productivity because of distractions is astronomical.

Managing the distraction of nearby conversations in open plans is the primary acoustical issue in the workplace for facility managers. By incorporating the right amounts of the A,B,Cs (absorb, block, and cover-up) of soundmasking, the ability to concentrate can be greatly improved by reducing the amount of background speech distraction.
