By comprehensively shredding confidential waste and other classified materials, data owners and processors benefit from utmost peace of mind that sensitive information will never end up in the wrong hands. But there is often more to security shredding, than the safe disposal of confidential ‘waste’. It is possible to destroy the data or other protected elements, without ruining the resource value of the product itself…
Compliance is an over-riding fear factor for most businesses, so of course complete confidential waste destruction is essential. Security shredding is the best way to ensure the robust handling of everything from sensitive paperwork and electronic drives, to contraband products and high-value branded production waste.
But carefully considered confidential waste shredding can also help to preserve the recyclability of the product, particularly if using a slow-speed high torque shredder that does not destroy the material’s fibres.
A meticulous cut – rather than tear – action can help to ensure a precise shred and particle homogeneity, which satisfies data destruction rules at the same time as optimising the materials for downstream recycling.
Valuable materials can then be segregated and inserted back into the remanufacturing process to prolong their useful life.
Used by both confidential waste destruction specialists and end users keen to shred their own materials on site, all of UNTHA’s machines are independently DIN-66399 certified up to security level 3, and for P, O, H, F, T and E classifications.
Engineered with operational consistency and maximum uptime in mind, the minimal chance of breakdowns provides added peace of mind during this highly secure shredding process.
A configurable and homogenous shred provides operator flexibility both from a confidential waste handling and an onward recycling perspective.
UNTHA’s confidential waste shredders boast low whole life running costs which – coupled with the longevity of these machines and their ease of maintenance – adds to the bottom-line benefits of the investment.
With high resistance against unshreddables, low dust levels, low noise pollution and easy maintenance, operator wellbeing, health and safety remains paramount throughout.
There’s no such thing as a one size fits all approach at UNTHA – we have five confidential waste shredders in our fleet, so you don’t have to over-invest in capacity you don’t need.
