Why Proper Document Destruction Matters

Confidential documents thrown in bins or standard recycling leave your business exposed.

Confidential paper shredding

Confidential paper shredding physically destroys documents beyond reconstruction. Cross-cut shredding creates particles so small that reassembly becomes impossible. It’s the only method meeting UK data protection laws whilst protecting your reputation and customer trust.

Your On-Site Paper Shredding F.A.Q.s

Do I need to remove paper clips, staples, or binders before shredding?

No. Our industrial-grade shredders can easily handle staples, paper clips, and even small binder clips. However, we recommend removing large lever-arch binders or plastic sleeves to ensure the most efficient shredding process.
