FAQs
Secure Destruction questions, answered.
The most common questions UK businesses ask about secure destruction. Need more detail? Talk to our team.
What standard do you destroy material to?
Paper is destroyed to BS EN 15713 / DIN 66399, with shred sizes selected to match the sensitivity of the material.
Do you offer on-site or off-site shredding?
Both. Mobile shredding trucks destroy on your premises with witnessed destruction, or sealed consoles are uplifted for off-site processing.
Will I receive a destruction certificate?
Yes. A Certificate of Destruction is issued for every uplift, with chain-of-custody references for audit purposes.
Can you destroy more than paper?
Yes — hard drives, USBs, uniforms, branded stock, prototypes, ID cards, x-rays and product recalls are all handled under chain-of-custody.
How often will you collect confidential waste?
From ad-hoc one-off purges to scheduled weekly or monthly console swaps, depending on volume and sensitivity.
Is the shredded material recycled?
Yes. Shredded paper is baled and sent to UK paper mills for tissue and packaging manufacture, closing the loop on confidential waste.
