Things to Consider Before Purchasing a Shredder:
Cut Type
With Identity Theft concerns at an all-time high, the need to protect personal information is more important than ever. And these days, it's no longer just what you shred that matters--it's how small you shred it. Shredders with a smaller cut size will help keep your information secure long after you dispose of the particles. The smaller the cut size, the higher the security level.
Strip Cut | Cross-Cut | Micro-Cut | High Security |
Security Level 2 | Security Level 3 | Security Level 4 | Security Level 6 |
39 -- 7/32" stripsper 8.5" x 11" page | 399 particlesper 8.5" x 11" page | 3,000 particlesper 8.5" x 11" page | 13,000 particlesper 8.5" x 11" page |
Ideal for: Non-confidential documents | Ideal for: Credit/College Applications, Insurance papers, Junk mail | Ideal for: Medical Records, Employee/HR Files, Bank/Financial Statements | Ideal for: Top Secret or Classified Government Documents |
If you shred confidential documents, choose Cross-Cut or smaller. A smaller cut size also means you will empty the bin less frequently.
Productivity
Shredder productivity goes beyond mere sheet capacity or speed. When shopping for a shredder, consider the machine's throughput, or the efficiency with which it can get the job done. Throughput combines the three most critical features that contribute to a shredder's performance:
For example, a shredder with a speed of 8.2 feet per minute (FPM), may seem more productive than one that shreds at only 7 FPM. After all, it's a faster machine! But as the example below illustrates, Shredder B is actually three times more productive than Shredder A, due to a longer duty cycle. This means you can get more done at one time, so you can quickly move on with your day.
Model | Sheet Capacity | x | Speed | x | Duty Cycle* | = | Throughput |
Shredder A | 12 | x | 8.2 FPM | x | 3 minutes | = | 295 |
Shredder B | 15 | x | 7 FPM | x | 10 minutes | = | 1,050 |
