The tremendous growth in the sound masking market has been brought about by a variety of factors. Among them are the many significant changes in the way we design and build spaces today.
Improvements in building systems such as quieter HVAC systems and higher performing ceiling tiles as well as other design choices have reduced the ambient background sound and have limited some of the absorbing and blocking properties found in the space.
This has created additional speech privacy issues and an increased need for sound masking.
