Speech Privacy

Speech Privacy (Sound Masking or White Noise) is the process of introducing ambient noise that gently overrides the sounds that ceiling panels do not completely reduce, making a workspace more comfortable and productive. Adding Sound Masking to your office space can improve the performance of your space by 50% and is acoustically equivalent to tripling the distance between employees. Distractions can be minimized which ensures you are creating a more productive environment for your employees. While the open office plan is designed to encourage interaction and collaboration, noise from meetings, speakerphones, and conversation can be overwhelming. Employees also need the opportunity to work independently without interruption.
Omaha Audio Video Speech Privacy Solutions will work in conjunction with your ceiling and panel systems to create an environment that encourages teamwork while allowing autonomy for your employees. As an industry leader in Speech Privacy Solutions, Omaha Audio Video can offer you an affordable acoustical solution that can significantly improve the comfort and productivity of your office space.
