Shredder & Baler Pairing

Typically, a horizontal baler with a sealed chamber is the best match for materials shredded by our equipment. Shredders range in size from 48-inch models to large industrial units that can process up to 2 tons per hour, making them suitable for small businesses or large facilities alike.

Dust Collection: A Must for Safety and Cleanliness

We highly recommend using a dust collection system with your shredder. It helps maintain air quality by keeping employees safe from harmful dust and ensures your facility stays clean, free from accumulated paper dust or other debris. Proper dust management is an essential part of operating a safe and efficient shredding system.
