Crosscut Shredder
Commercial Paper Shredder Features
What features should you look for in your next commercial paper shredder? If you haven't purchased one in some time, or are looking for your first one, you may not be familiar with what is out there.
There are generally two types of shredders that you will hear about and they are the strip cut and the crosscut or confetti shredders. Crosscut shredders provide better security by shredding the paper into smaller confetti-like strips vs. the strip cut models.
Now that you have decided which type of shredder you want, there are still more options to choose from. How much traffic will you be sending its way? Shredders are designed for several types of workload, be sure you pick the right one for your office. Will the workload be light or moderate or even heavy duty? Will there be many users of the shredder throughout the day?
What kinds of materials will you want to shred? Several shredders today offer shredding abilities beyond paper. You can find shredders that will shred CDs and DVDs, along with paperclips and staples.
You should also consider what kind of safety features and perk features are out there. Without a doubt, you should purchase an industrial shredder that has such safety features as stopping the shredder when a hand or finger is near the shredder opening. There are also such features as jam proof -- yes now you can rest from the frustrations of a shredder jam by buying one of the latest, high tech, shredders out there. Check out the Reuter's article, "Revolutionary Paper Shredder Puts an End to Consumers' Number One Complaint," to learn about the technology.
You should also look at the size of the cut for security and also look at the wastebasket size.
Now you are armed with more information to pick out your next commercial document shredder.

Are there any places that have crosscutting shredders for public use?
Cross cut shredders are fine for small applications but they don't scale well. Professional shredding companies use pierce and tear technology. It is not only faster but is more secure because the pieces are all irregular shapes and torn at the fiber so it can't be put back together with software like a cross cut shredder can.
So there are shredding services for the public but they use better technology than cross cut shredders.
