Features and Functions Why a Destroy it Paper Shredder is Right for You

If you are looking for a great paper shredder, the Destroyit paper shredder line is the perfect fit for anyone. By having a paper shredder available in your office, at your school, or even in your home, you will be able to destroy documents and sensitive information as needed. Having this added convenience and security can make every day a little easier. Here are a few reasons to consider the Destroyit line specifically.

What is the Function of a Paper Shredder?

This seems like a simple and straight forward answer, but it is not. Obviously, the answer is to shred paper, but the better question is why. Yes, we want to have a paper shredder that will destroy paper, but why are you destroying that document?   Typically most shredders now offer a “cross cut” shred that will provide the best security.  You can purchase a “strip cut” model however the only reason to consider his type of shred is increased throughput.  We always recommend cross cut models to ensure a high decree of security.   User operation, budget, shred capacity and security levels are all questions to be considered during a paper shredder purchase.

What is a Rating and How Can I Tell What I need?

When it comes to paper shredders, there is a security classification regarding the cut width on paper. For example, to get a higher destruction rate means a higher security rating. If you are trying to protect your home paperwork, it is recommended that you would use at least a number two rated paper shredder and if you are trying to destroy business or medical documents, you would legally need at least a level 3 rated machine. The higher the security rating is directly related to the resulting size of the shredded paper.
