Why shred your documents?

There are many different reasons why businesses should shred their important documents. Here are a few.

1. Privacy Concerns

 Privacy is vital in today’s day and age, which is why governments around the world continue to develop legislation that helps protect individuals’ privacy.

Documents that contain any personal information including:

• Names and addresses
• Phone numbers and email addresses
• Banking and financial details
• Medical records
• and legal documentation

Documents should always be disposed of appropriately. It is the employer’s responsibility to make sure that all information at hand is destroyed to an appropriate standard.

2. Environmental Concerns

When we make any decision, we should consider the environment impact of it.

When it comes to shredding, the environmental impact of dumping product at landfill is not in our future best interests.

In Confidence, as an environmentally responsible company, recycles everything it can after the shredding process, ensuring that it actively reduces its environmental footprint whilst also reducing carbon emissions simultaneously.

Landfill? Not Secure

Some companies choose to dump their unwanted products at landfill for economic reasons rather than choosing security shredding, however, we urge you to strongly rethink this ideology.

Security Shredding vs Recycling

 What separates a recycling company from a shredding company? It’s simple. A shredding company has no interest in the value of the material it shreds. It’s only interest lies in protecting its clients’ information and product.

At In Confidence, all material is shredded through our accredited industrial shredders. After being destroyed the material is then sent for recycling.

A recycling company, however, makes its money from the value of the material it receives, which it sells locally or overseas. Once the material is sold, the recycling company loses control, and often does not take responsibility for the ultimate destruction of the paper and product.

There is no practical means of establishing the exact date that a record is destroyed. In the event of an audit or litigation, this could be a legal necessity. Furthermore, if something of a private nature should surface, the selection of this unsecured process could be interpreted negligent.

With Security Shredding, this problem simply does not exist.
