Heavy Duty Paper Shredders Will Keep Your Information Safe And Secure

Government and military operations have used paper shredders for half a century. The first shredder was patented in the us in 1909. In the 1930s a German inventor produced a hand-cranked shredder influenced by pasta makers, and after World War Ii sold it to government agencies and financial institutions. From the 1970s on, US government agencies and US embassies have used shredders to dispose of sensitive documents.

Paper shredders are usually 1 of 2 types: the strip-cut shredder and the confetti-cut, or cross-cut, shredder. A strip-cut shredder produces extremely narrow strips the size of the paper being shredded. That is, an 11 inch by 8 inch page cut by a strip-cut shredder creates very narrow strips which are 11 inches long. A cross-cut shredder cuts the paper into very small shapes, such as diamonds or rectangles. Both strip-cut and cross-cut models are available in heavy duty paper shredders. A more uncommon kind of shredder, the particle shredder, cuts paper into circles or squares.

A strip-cut industrial shredder typically is more affordable than cross-cut shredders; however, they don't provide you with the same level of security. For a company that wants to shred a great deal of documentation that doesn't contain sensitive information, strip-cut heavy-duty shredders are a true workhorse. These kinds of shredders are able to handle more paper at once compared to cross-cut shredders. They do have some drawbacks. Someone with determination and a lot of time can patch together the strips of the shredded document. They also produce a higher amount of waste.

Cross-cut or confetti guillotine cutters give you a advanced level of security. All of the shredders are assigned recognized security levels based on the size of the particles or strips they've created. Cross-cut shredders may range from Level 1 to Level 6, denoting non-sensitive data at Level 1 up to Top Secret and Classified information at Level 6. Strip-cut shredders aren't rated above Level 3, or Confidential data. Since cross-cut shredders create particles rather than strips, they have a much lower amount of waste than strip-cut shredders. However, they often aren't able to handle as many pieces of paper at the same time like a strip-cut shredder.

The heavy-duty shredders offer a number of features that make operations safe and efficient. For instance, paper jam prevention features can handle too much paper fed into the machine at once, or paper that is improperly fed. Many shredders will switch off when hands or any other objects get too close to the operating system.

Maintenance features include automatic oilers along with high cling shred oil that can help keep your cutting blades sharp and functioning efficiently. Energy saving components like sleep modes that save power if the shredder isn't being used are also available. Automatic cleaning cycles will help keep your cutting blades operating effectively by preventing paper buildup.

Once paper has been shredded with heavy duty shredders, the waste may be recycled in several different ways if a company wishes. Shredded paper can be used for animal bedding, for packaging, and for cardboard briquettes, which is often used as a substitute fuel source.

Many people could see paper shredding as unnecessary, however in today's world, it is necessary when sensitive documents have to be disposed of. Shredding eliminates the worry that sensitive information will get into the wrong hands, so it helps the environment at the same time.
