PS581 Paper Shredder

Identity theft is a major concern, both online and offline, with an ever-growing number of UK consumers becoming a victim of identity fraud at some time in their lives. If a thief obtains your personal details, they can open bank accounts, take out credit cards, apply for loans, apply for state benefits, order online, make in-store purchases, take out mobile phone contracts and even apply for identity documents such as a passport or driversβ licence in your name.
Donβt allow this to happen. Take action now and protect yourself and your loved ones from identity theft by ensuring all of your bills, letters - anything with your personal details on - gets shredded properly before being thrown away.
Ripping paper up isnβt good enough as it is easy for a thief to put the pieces back together again, but shredding the documents with the PS581 paper shredder will cut them into small 39x4mm pieces.
The Duronic PS581 paper shredder is ideal if you have high amounts of paper to shred; if you have a medium/large office or home office, this is the machine for you. Itβs durable, strong and able to plough through piles of papers to get the job done.
Things To Consider When Choosing a Shredder
It is important that you get the right shredder to suit your needs. There are several important factors that you should consider before purchasing one:
Purpose
Do you need it for home, a small office or a larger office?
Security
How high security do you need it? Choose from cross-cut for general shredding or micro-cut slicing up sensitive documents.
Usage
How often will you be using it? Do you want or need a larger bin to hold more and not need to empty as often?
Capability
How much paper do you want to be able to shred in one go?
Location
Where do you want to place it? On a table? Under it? On the floor standing proud in the middle of an office, or in a tight cover in a small space.
