Shred Smarter: Understanding the Ins and Outs of Drop-Off Shredding
Clients deliver documents to our Gauteng facility, where they are scanned into a digital tracking system and shredded using equipment certified to DIN 66399 P-4 standards, producing particles under 320mm². Biometric access controls and real-time monitoring secure the process, and a certificate of destruction is provided for compliance verification.
Why Drop-Off Shredding Matters: Protecting Data, Privacy, and Peace of Mind
With data breach recovery costs in South Africa averaging R53.10 million in 2024, secure document disposal is critical. POPIA requires organizations to destroy personal information responsibly, with non-compliance risking fines up to R10 million. Drop-off shredding prevents physical breaches, vital in a region where cyber and physical data losses totaled $3 billion from 2019 to 2025.
