    Confidential documents, used for storing personal, financial and corporate data, contain sensitive information that can be exploited if not properly managed. Storing and accumulating them without secure destruction facilitates data leakage, identity theft and the compromise of professional secrets, putting the confidentiality and reputation of individuals and organizations at risk.

Benefits of Secure and Environmentally Sound Destruction of Confidential Documents

  • Responsible document management: Secure shredding of confidential documents prevents leaks and protects sensitive data.
  • Promoting the circular economy: The destroyed paper is collected and recycled, contributing to the reuse of materials in the production of new paper products.
  • Protecting the environment: Recycling materials from document shredding reduces consumption of natural resources and minimizes environmental impact.

Stages of the Processing Process

  • Collection: Confidential documents are collected from designated locations and transported securely to authorized centers.
  • Sorting: Materials are checked and separated according to the type of medium (paper, cardboard, digital, etc.) and level of confidentiality.
  • Preparation: Documents are prepared for shredding by removing inappropriate items (staples, files, folders, envelopes).
  • Knocking: Documents are destroyed mechanically, turning into fine fragments that are impossible to reconstruct according to security rules.
  • Recycling: The resulting waste is collected and sent to authorized recyclers, helping to protect the environment and reduce waste.
