What is Sound Masking?
Modern office designs often amplify noise distractions, making it harder for employees to focus and diminishing speech privacy. Open floor plans, reflective surfaces like glass walls, and hard partitions only add to the challenge.
Sound masking adds a subtle background sound to your environment—similar to airflow or gentle water—that helps obscure distracting noises. It reduces the intelligibility of human speech and other ambient sounds, creating a quieter, more focused workspace.
Sound Masking vs. White Noise: What’s the Difference?
White Noise
White noise is a constant, unstructured sound that contains all frequencies at equal intensity. While it can cover some noise, it is ineffective at masking speech.
Sound Masking
Sound masking is an engineered, ambient sound specifically designed to match the frequency range of ambient office sounds. This makes it far more effective at reducing speech intelligibility and minimizing distractions.
