Shred-it was established in 1988 as a solution to a critical business need - the protection and secure disposal of sensitive business information.
Today, over 100,000 companies and organizations on five continents use Shred-it for the protection of their most vital asset - information. Shred-it has provided solutions to the world's most information-sensitive industries, including law enforcement, government, healthcare, financial services, technology and manufacturing sectors.
Our Success
Shred-it is the mobile, on-site document destruction industry pioneer. Our system of document destruction provides companies with the ultimate in secure information disposal.
Why is document destruction a high growth industry?
- Increased Paper Consumption: Whatever happened to the paperless office? Paper consumption is projected to increase 14-16% year over year through 2010. Consequently, demand for document destruction services continues to increase each year. As a measure of market demand, Shred-it's sales have increased 60%, year over year, for the past decade.
-
Environmental Responsibility: Business leaders have become increasingly sensitive to environmental issues. The shredded waste created by our system is typically baled and sold to paper mills that recycle the bales of shredded paper. In doing so, the Shred-it system replaces approximately 17 trees for every ton of paper recycled, and creates an additional source of revenue for franchisees.
-
Increased Fraud: Fraud is a $100 billion threat in North America alone - a conservative estimate, given that more than 75% of fraud goes undetected.
-
Increased Government Regulation: Consumer privacy has become a very public issue. Governments worldwide are enacting legislation mandating the secure disposal of various types of information.
