Shredders

Document Shredders – Ensure Data Security (GDPR)

Paper shredders are essential equipment for every office, study, and even home where personal data protection is a priority. In the age of GDPR, the secure disposal of documents containing confidential information (contracts, invoices, customer data, bank statements) has become a legal obligation. A shredder effectively and irreversibly destroys paper, protecting against identity theft and data leaks.

How to choose a shredder for the office and home?

When choosing a shredder, pay attention to two key parameters: the cut type (security level) and performance.

1. Cut Type (Security Level DIN 66399)

• Strip-Cut Shredders (P-1, P-2): Cut documents into long, narrow strips. They provide a basic level of security, suitable for general-use documents.
• Cross-Cut Shredders (P-3, P-4): Cut paper both lengthwise and widthwise, creating small particles. This is the most popular choice, offering an excellent compromise between security (compliant with GDPR for personal data) and price.
• Micro-Cut Shredders (P-5, P-6, P-7): Cut documents into very fine dust or confetti. Designed for shredding top-secret and highly confidential documents (e.g., in law firms, HR departments, government institutions).

2. Performance and Functionality

• Sheet Capacity: Specifies how many sheets of paper (e.g., 80g/m²) can be shredded at once.
• Bin Capacity: The larger the bin, the less frequently it needs to be emptied.
• Additional Features: Many models also shred staples, paper clips, credit cards, and even CDs/DVDs. A reverse function and overheat protection are also useful.
