August 3, 2001—USG Corporation and Lencore Acoustics Corporation have formed a strategic alliance to give architects and design professionals the ability to specify Lencore’s sound-masking systems with all USG acoustical ceilings.
Designed to reduce noise in both open and closed offices, Lencore sound-masking systems introduce an unobtrusive, ambient background sound into offices and other areas through special speakers installed above the ceiling panels. The systems render speech unintelligible to those outside the vicinity while reducing interference from distracting sounds. In addition, the sound level can be adjusted to suit a variety of conditions and privacy requirements.
Lencore sound-masking systems, which work in tandem with USG’s acoustical ceiling panels, are intended to appeal to architects and facilities managers seeking an effective and economical means of minimizing distractions.
