Sound Masking

Sound Masking

Is confidential information being kept confidential?

Sound masking keeps personal information confidential.

  • Unobtrusive, ambient background sound renders speech unintelligible.
  • Meets HIPPA and GLBA standards for Medical and Financial institutions.

Sound masking promotes employee efficiency.

  • Allows conversation to take place without disturbing others.
  • Alleviates distractions and increases morale.

Sound masking works by producing sound electronically, similar to that of softly blowing air, which is projected through special speakers installed above the tiles in the ceiling.  This sound is distributed throughout the area being masked and can be adjusted to the individual privacy requirements in any given area.

Sound masking is set one or two decibels above conversation level.  It provides a random sound that does not carry information, and is non-directional and harmoniously uniform.  Sound masking provides voice privacy, confidentiality, and protection of proprietary information as required by HIPPA and  GLBA.
