Shredder Security Levels

It’s All in The Paper Size

It makes sense once you think about it – the smaller the shred, the more secure the shredder. There are six different paper security standard levels that range from P-2 (the least security) to P-7 (the most security). We carry three leves: P4, P5, and P7. Review the differences between each to find the paper shredder security level that will work for your business.
