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 drivers licence in your name.
Don’t allow this to happen. Take action now and protect yourself 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 isn’t good enough as it is easy for a thief to put the pieces back together again, but shredding the documents with the PS410 shredder will cut them into tiny 10x4mm pieces.
The Duronic PS410 is ideal if you have moderate amounts of paper to shred; if you have a small/medium office or home office, this is the machine for you. It’s heavy duty and able to plough through piles of papers to get the job done.
If you need a shredder with even greater shredding capacity see our other model PS991 which can shred up to 18 sheets at a time. Or for a more portable model, see our mini desk shredder PS391.
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.
In line with the recent implementation of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), businesses and anywhere that holds sensitive data are under greater scrutiny when it comes to disposing of personal data.
With the PS410 shredder this isn’t a worry as it will efficiently cut through paper into micro pieces, ensuring that if your disposed documents get into the wrong hands, they will never be able to be put back together again by the thief.
Like all shredders, this model has an on/off power switch, forwards and backwards function (to help in the event of a paper jam).
It has an opening of 22cm which is suited for A4 paper. It also has an LED power light to indicate when the machine is ready to use.
The PS410 has a large 14 litre bin can be used daily without having to be emptied after each use.
To check when it is getting full simply open the bin slightly to check.
Don't forget to recycle your waste paper when you dispose of it!
Built with a strong 530W motor, this shredder will power through tasks with ease.
It has a built-in run time of 3 minutes on / 30 minutes off. This is a safety feature to preserve the motor and prevent it from overheating.
Able to shred both paper and credit cards, this shredder will help you safely dispose of all your unwanted private documents.
It can micro-cut up to 8 pages of A4 paper or 1 credit/debit card at a time.
Perfect for the smaller office or as a home shredder, the size is ample but not too imposing.
The PS410 will fit nicely under a desk or table and can be moved easily on its 4 hidden caster wheels.
