Why shred your company's documentation?
Your company's private information is not limited to bank statements and business contracts. Printed confidential materials are produced daily in every business and by every employee — from employee medical records to strategic planning documents.
According to the Federal Trade Commission, identity theft has becom the fastest-growing non-violent crime in America. An estimated $120 billion a year is being lost to U.S. companies due to stollen information. Hackers can breach your security and invade your network through stollen company documentation. Corporate espionage can also threaten your business' reputation and security — along with destroying personal credit ratings.

Experts Recommend Regular Shredding
For many businesses, shredding is absolutely necessary to protect sensitive documents or to comply with the law.
Industry experts suggest setting a schedule for regular shredding. The frequency depends on the volume of waste that your company generates. Monthly shredding may be sufficient, or perhaps you need daily pick-ups to stay ahead of the paper flow.
Benefits of regular scheduled shredding:
• Reduces document storage issues
• Helps control costs
• Encourages employees to make a habit of proper document disposal
Shredding Network offers customized pick-up schedules, or as-needed pick-ups for any size business — even individuals. We also provide security containers for customers.
Why outsource your document destruction or shredding?
1.
BECAUSE IT SAVES TIME & MONEY:
• Doing it yourself can take up to 3-5 times longer, and cost more money.
• Employee salaries used towards shredding rather than completing more productive tasks can be costly.
• Cost of shredding equipment, repairs and maintenance .
• Cost of disposal bags ranging from 25 cents to $1 a bag.
2.
IT'S GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT: All shredded documents are recycled and used to develop new products. Which also prevents local land fills from being unnecessarily filled.
3.
IT'S QUIET, CONVENIENT, AND CLEAN:
• No paper dust, noise, cleanup, or other shred-it-yourself headaches.
• You decide the type, number and size of secured containers that best fit your needs.
• You decide the frequency to have your secured containers emptied and documents destroyed.
Computer and Electronic Hardware Recycling
Governments and manufacturers of electronic hardware are increasingly coming under pressure regarding the safe disposal of electronic products once their useful life has been completed. End-of-life (EOL) legislation for electronics is being contemplated in Europe and being implemented in countries such as Sweden. Shredding Network has engineered and manufactured custom systems to reduce, separate and recover the component materials that make up these electronic products.
The systems offered by Shredding Network can be custom configured using designed and proven system modules to meet specific capacity and separation requirements. Notebooks, desktops and mainframe computers can be processed along with telecommunication switching racks, medical and military equipment, etc. The system reduces and separates component material such as plastic, aluminum, copper, steel and precious metals. These materials may then be sold as commodities.
Shredding Network's Electronic Hardware Recycling Systems solve EOL responsibility issues for manufacturers of electronics by:
• Reducing all types of electronic waste with minimum or no disassembly.
• Efficiently processing high volumes of electronic waste.
• Recovering base metals such as aluminum, copper, zinc and steel.
• Recovering high value precious metals.
• Eliminating used electronic products and/or components from landfills.
• Providing secure destruction of customer's used equipment.
• Removing disposal responsibility of all product from the consumer while offering the manufacturer an opportunity to replace these products with new products.
By reducing and separating electronic equipment back to its original materials, Shredding Network ensures that post-consumer electronic products are efficiently and economically recycled. |
