In all shredder which is the best paper shredder for my office use ?

Does your office have a paper shredder? Are you considering purchasing one? Now days, almost every office has a paper shredder (or should have a paper shredder). If your office is one of the few that doesn't have one or if you need to upgrade then you are going to need to pick the right size shredder for your office. This article will help you understand some of the things that you should consider when deciding on the size of shredder for your office. Many offices end up buying a paper shredder that is too small for their needs. When the paper shredder is too small for your needs, three things usually happen. . . 1. Employees get frustrated and end up just throwing their documents into the trash instead of shredding them. Obviously this defeats the whole purpose of having a paper shredder. 2. People try to overload the paper shredder with too many sheets or too much material and burn up the motor or strip the gears. In this case the company usually needs to replace the shredder. 3. The shredder bag ends up being full all the time. This usually results in users throwing their sensitive documents in the trash or in the office shredding piling up next to the shredder. If you don't want these three things to happen, it is important to choose a shredder that is adequate to meet the needs of your office. In order to be sure that you get a shredder that will do the job there are a few things that you will need to consider. 1. First, you will want to decide what type of shredder that you want. Strip cut shredders are generally faster and cheaper than cross cut shredders. However, if you decide you want a strip cut shredder you will need to make sure that you have a larger capacity storage bin since the shredded material will pile up far quicker than with a confetti cut model. I usually recommend a cross cut, micro cut or confetti cut shredder for most offices since they are more secure and require far fewer bag changes. 2. You will need to consider how many users will be sharing the shredder. If the shredder is for an individual then you probably need a deskside wastebasket shredder. If it is for a small department with just a few people you will need a larger wastebasket shredder or an introductory office duty shredder. However, if the shredder is going to be shared by more than five people you will probably want to consider getting a larger office duty commercial shredder that is designed for a multi user office environment. 3. For larger offices where shredding volume may occasionally be heavy you will want to consider getting a shredder with a continuous duty motor. These shredders can shred continuously for long periods of time without overheating or needing to cool down. Many smaller shredders will require a substantial cool down period if you shred continuously with them for more than a few minutes. 4. If your office uses CD's and DVD's with confidential information on them you might also need to consider a shredder that is capable of shredding these. Most shredding machines are able to handle documents with staples and paper clips. However, you will need to check to see if the shredder you have will shred disks and credit cards. If you remember to consider these four things when you are purchasing your shredder you will most likely not buy a shredder that is too small for your application. Just remember that as long as you have the space, you can't really have too big a shredder. Sometimes it is better to go a little bit overboard than to discover later that you didn't get a shredder that will meet your needs.

Documents have been shredded in the United States for decades. Ever since the Egyptians created papyrus in 4000 B. C. , there has been a need to destroy documents. When a mistake was made or information needed to be destroyed, the papyrus could be easily torn up or burned. Things have changed a lot since then. The first mechanical shredder was created in 1935 in Germany. Adolf Ehinger used standard kitchen tools to create a device that would make paper unreadable. His inspiration for creating a paper shredder was to help him get rid of anti-Nazi material. After being confronted by Nazi soldiers about literature in his garbage can, he decided he needed to find a better way to destroy it. Adolf's biggest inspiration for his paper shredder was a hand-cranked pasta maker. Using the same concept, he created a mechanical device that sat in a wood frame. He later fit it with an electric motor. People thought his device was pointless. During the 1940s he began selling his invention to various government entities and embassies. Due to the Cold War, Adolf's invention became more popular. In 1959 he created the first cross-cut paper shredder. Cross cut paper shredders cut paper in multiple directions, making it even harder to decipher the shredded material. Strip cut paper shredders, which typically create ¼-inch strips of paper, are not as secure. During that period of time, shredders were typically only used by the government. Shredders have played an important role in history, being associated with cover-ups. The Nixon re-election committee used a Fellowes paper shredder during Watergate. Lieutenant Colonel Oliver North used an Intimus 007-S shredder to shred documents during the Iran-Contra scandal. Cross-cut shredders grew in popularity in 1979 after the American Embassy in Tehran was overrun by Iranian militants. Documents at the embassy where only strip-cut, allowing the pieces to be pieced back together by Persian carpet weavers. Due to the Iran incident, the government now requires strict shredding conditions. Today, shredders are used in almost all business environments. New laws require that just about everything be shredded. Shredders can now be found in homes, businesses, educational institutions and more. Shredders are now created to not only shred paper, but some can also shred DVDs, CDs, floppy disks and more. You can see a wide variety of paper shredders used today by visiting Office Zone.

My office needs to find a really good paper shredder that isn't necessarily the most expensive, but, without price mattering, it is the most heavy duty.
