Frequently Asked Questions - Sound Masking

Question How does sound masking (also known as a speech privacy system) work?
Answer

We introduce white noise into an environment to protect the privacy of conversations. Essentially, these systems reduce what is called “speech intelligibility”. Meaning the conversation can be heard but due to the white noise cannot be understood by surrounding individuals. Therefore, fellow co-workers or visitors are not distracted by the conversation or included in it.
