It sounds surprising, but some buildings are too quiet. When background noise is very low, conversations carry further, and every phone call, footstep or door closing becomes noticeable. This is common in modern offices, consulting rooms and hotel rooms.
Sound masking systems raise background noise levels slightly by introducing a gentle, unobtrusive sound, similar to the low hum of an air-conditioned building. This helps mask distracting noises and makes nearby speech much harder to understand, improving privacy and concentration.
How we can help
- Measuring existing background noise and speech privacy
- Advising whether masking is the right solution, or whether partitions or layout changes would work better
- Independent advice on system specification and set-up
- Testing after installation to confirm the system is working well
