How ShredPro Confidential Waste Bins Help Reduce Risk

Working in business today you know risk management is essential to protect your organisation from a host of threats including data breaches, identity theft, and fraud.

At ShredPro we help clients reduce risk through the use of confidential waste bins to dispose of sensitive documents safely, with security measures in place to prevent unauthorised access.

Ideal for businesses of all sizes, we offer a range of sizes and styles with features including locking lids and a secure aperture preventing papers from being removed once they have been deposited. Working to the highest industry standards we destroy the documents through on-site shredding which eliminates the risk of your documents being lost or stolen.

Or we can remove the documents and provide off-site shredding, backed with the provision of certificates of destruction. By using ShredPro’s confidential waste bins and services, you can reduce your risk of data breaches, identity theft and fraud.

Documents to treat as confidential:

Financial documents, contracts, legal records, customer and staff records, medical records, invoices, bank statements, supplier information, delivery notes, HR files and memos, printed emails, insurance files, bills, receipts, letters, marketing information, notebooks, service log files and payroll records.

Why it matters

The safe storage and destruction of documents will help you comply with relevant regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). After the initial focus on implementing GDPR in 2018, companies across Europe have had to maintain compliance or face the consequences.

For the largest companies there have been eye watering penalties. Internet giant Meta’s EU base in Ireland was fined €1.2bn by the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) for breaching the flagship data protection law. Ensuring your company carries out good practice around document destruction and recycling will help prevent you falling foul of the regulations.

Our options

We offer three main options (Free Shredding Bins and Secure Shredding Consoles)

Consoles for confidential waste

Secure consoles are designed to suit any office environment. Lockable for added security and assurance, they are specifically designed with wide-feed slots that can take up to 400 pieces of paper at a time and cannot be retrieved. Sturdy enough to take the weight of a printer or other office equipment on the top, they are made with recycled wood materials compliant with the Environmentally Preferred Product Certification (EPP), ensuring better office air quality.

Secure bins for confidential waste

ShredPro’s wheeled security containers are extremely durable and easy to manoeuvre, making them a practical addition to the workplace. Top-loading, we offer durable plastic containers with larger sizes available for high paper volumes. Ideal for higher volume areas such as post rooms, print rooms or warehouse, they feature a security slot to ensure paper cannot be retrieved from inside. Our secure bins are also wheeled and well-balanced for easy handling.

Nylon bags for confidential paper

ShredPro’s nylon bags provide a high level of security for confidential paper materials. They are difficult to tear or puncture and can be sealed with tamper-proof ties or locks. Our bags are water resistant, which protects materials from moisture damage when transporting bags outdoors. ShredPro bags are reusable and can withstand multiple uses, as well as lightweight, which makes them easy to transport, and tear-resistant, which prevents unauthorised access to the contents.
