Listen to your office
Sales are in progress, orders are given, phones are answered. Throw in the copier and bathroom noise, not to mention the AC switching on and off and various cell phones buzzing with missed calls, voicemails, and unreturned texts and you have a virtual sound symphony. As interesting as the current gossip may be, a critical problem arises when your workers can’t hear themselves think as a result of all the noise floating around them.
Sound masking…the solution for open offices
Office managers have realized that fewer doors mean more noise. Rather than accept that this is an inevitable sign of the times, there is something you can do for your office. A Cornell study stated that “the most prevalent way of dealing with excessive noise is through the introduction of an artificial masking noise.” With our direct-field technology, you’ll have the advantages of pre-tuned, uniform sound masking that will cancel unwelcome noise. The result is that your employees feel less stressed and more able to focus on their work. And with this economy, more than ever, it’s crucial to be productive.
