Shredfast Mobile Security Destruction - About Us
Shredfast Australia the story so far......
In 2005 the founder of Shredfast in Australia sold his previous business. Whilst
travelling in Europe he came across In-truck shredding technology. The obvious
user advantages for on-site shredding offer a customer total peace of mind for
their confidential and sensitive paper records. The first truck was quickly
fully utilized as customers came to realise how safe on-site shredding would
be. A second truck is being constructed and a new on-site recycling depot is
being built in Artarmon, to cater for 3mm SCEC endorsed destruction of paper,
hard drives and media, ready to operate in the first quarter of 2008. All this
has been achieved within 18 months.
OVERVIEW - DOCUMENT SHREDDING BUSINESS
On 11th September 2001 people turned on their television to the 9/11 tragedy in
New York history will record at this moment a warning to all mankind we now face
serious attitudinal change. The careless and somewhat blasé toward securing our
businesses, governments in our homes and personal security an easy going way of
life was gone for ever.
With this change initially in the Northern Hemisphere Business and Government
began to review all levels of security procedures to protect the safety of
Employees and privacy of information. Whilst large sums of money were being
spent beefing up privacy procedures in the "front office" it was discovered the
back door disposal of confidential and sensitive waste paper records was being
neglected.
It was no longer acceptable for cleaners to pick-up and place rubbish in the
basement dumpster. Some company's purchased in-house shredding machines at high
operating costs and burn out hazard. Causing a loss of interest by employees to
shred as it was easier to dump it in a waste bin.
PICK UP FOR OFF SITE SHREDDING
Most Company's and Governments turned to waste management companies to find a
secure solution for destruction of confidential waste. Hence pick up garbage
began picking up of secure garbage bins for transport to an off-site shredding
facility. Waste Management Companies began to prosper as we all embraced this
off-site solution as the best available at the time. This method still exists
today in many parts of the world.
In the past few years media reports began to filter through showing information
falling off the back of these un-secured trucks and falling into the wrong hands
breaching customer and company privacy. As to be expected not all Companies were
happy with entrusting their confidential waste materials to a garbage truck pick
up for off-site shredding. Technology has a way of evolving for the betterment
and the Mobile document shredding Truck was born.
