Product Information

When using a paper shredder, it\'s important to follow safety guidelines provided by the manufacturer, such as keeping hands and clothing away from the shredder\'s opening, avoiding overfeeding the shredder, and periodically oiling the shredder blades to maintain performance and prevent jams which you can find all within this range.

Shreds Staples  Staples refer to standard 26/6 sized staples - never shred these through an automatic paper feeder - use the manual feed slot instead The next big choice to make is the shredding capacity, or how many sheets of paper can the machine shred at one time. It is important not to shred more sheets at a time than the machine is capable of as this can cause it to jam and overheat. It is important to get a document shredder for any home, office or workplace to protect personal information such as credit cards and bank statements from identity theft. There is a huge range of different types of shredder depending on the size of the machine, cut type and capacity. It is essential that you choose the right machine with the capability to meet your shredding requirements. There are 3 main cut types which are strip cut (ribbon cut), cross cut shredders and micro cut shredders. The more popular is cross cut paper shredders although more and more people are opting for micro cuts. All of these types will allow you to dispose of your sensitive information safely and securely however the shredded pieces will differ in size depending on which you choose.

We also have a range of lubricants to accompany your machine including the Fellowes Shredder Oil, to help keep your shredder running smoother for longer. Bin Capacity  The number of shredded sheets that can collect in the waste bin before requiring emptying is provided for guidance purposes only. It may be necessary to push shreds down to reach capacities, and can be subject to many factors including the type, weight, size and age of paper being shredded.

Sheet Capacity  All specifications stated are to be used as guidance only and are subject to change at any time. Shredder sheet capacities for example are provided by manufacturers and are based on 70 gram paper, and are normally only achievable in ideal situations, so heavier duty paper will shred less sheets. In many cases the capacities quoted are theoretical as conditions vary and are dependent on operator usage, age and condition of machines, how regularly cutters are oiled, type and quality of paper etc. so realistic throughputs can be as low as half that of the theoretical capacities quoted.Here at OfficeStationery, we have a great selection of Shredding machines which are made t o prevent unauthorised access to the information by reducing paper documents to unreadable fragments. Paper shredders help protect against identity theft, data breaches, and the unauthorised disclosure of personal or confidential information. Continuous Run Time  The Continuous Run Time of all shredders are to be used as guidance only and are normally only achievable in ideal situations. Run times can be dependent on operator usage, the age and condition of machines, how regularly cutters are oiled, the type and quality of paper used etc. Shreds Paperclips  Paperclips refer to standard sized paperclips - never shred these through an automatic paper feeder - use the manual feed slot instead Low - P-1 and P-2 shredders for basic and everyday shredding (use these for the shredding of less sensitive, non-confidential documents) Noise Level  Can be subject to many factors but is an indication when a machine is run without paper being shredded.
