The UK use a total of 12.5 million tonnes of paper every single year. This uses a huge amount of energy and produces CO2, harming our environment. With businesses reducing their carbon footprint by allowing their shredded documents to go on to be recycled can dramatically reduce this, saving paper from going into landfill where more greenhouse gases are produced.
More and more businesses are adopting the practice of on-site paper shredding. For legal compliance and protecting secure customer and staff information, keeping information confidential is an essential part of business. Mobile shredding using a trusted company is becoming the norm, as it takes up less critical time, and provides an assurance of sufficient disposal. You can leave shredding in the hands of a professional company and receive the benefits of allowing them to take care of your secure data, so that you don’t have to spend time in-house manually shredding each document.
Often organisations of all sizes can overlook the issue of security without considering the implications. From theft, to more serious issues, confidentiality is crucial to protect both your customer and in-house data. Security will also give customers a reason to trust and rely on you over some of your competitors. Here are just a few ways to increase your security through on-site shredding.
