Improving Speech Privacy and Reducing Workplace Distractions
Workplace conversations and other everyday sounds can become distracting in open-plan offices and shared working environments, while speech travelling between spaces can also create privacy concerns.
Remark Group designs and installs workplace sound masking systems that introduce a subtle, consistent background sound to reduce speech intelligibility and make changes in workplace noise less noticeable.
The result is a more balanced acoustic environment with greater speech privacy and fewer audible distractions.
Sound masking reduces the intelligibility of conversations, helping improve speech privacy across open-plan offices, meeting areas and other shared spaces.
By raising the ambient background sound to a controlled level, sound masking can make conversations and other changes in workplace noise less noticeable.
Sound masking creates a controlled acoustic backdrop across the workplace, helping reduce the contrast between quieter background conditions and sudden sounds.
Creating inclusive workplaces means considering how different people experience the acoustic environment. In very quiet offices, conversations, phones and other sudden sounds can become particularly noticeable.
Sound masking creates a more consistent acoustic backdrop, reducing the contrast between background sound and everyday workplace noise.
As part of a wider approach to workplace acoustics, this can help organisations create working environments that consider a broader range of acoustic needs.
Acoustic Assessment & Design
We assess the workplace environment, layout and acoustic requirements before designing the sound masking system around the areas being treated.
Professional Installation
Our engineers install and configure the system around the workplace, with out-of-hours installation available where required to minimise disruption.
Training & Ongoing Support
Following installation, we provide the guidance needed to manage the system, with ongoing support available where required.
