Hard drive shredders in South Africa – for peace of mind information removal


Hard drive shredders have become an important part of many offices over the last few years. Confidential business and private information can sometimes get into the wrong hands, even when individuals believe that it has been removed from their hard drives PC, laptops and printer hard drives; the latter of which is unfamiliar to many people. “The ideal is the 100% physical destruction and not deletion of data, in order to ensure that hackers are unable to access any information assumed to have been previously removed,” says Michael Springer – Managing Director of Pitney Bowes South Africa.

Pitney Bowes’ supplier, HSM has introduced a shredder (HDS 230) that provides companies and individuals with complete peace of mind. This hard drive shredder effectively ‘shreds’ the hard drive of their PC or laptop into small particles.

Easy and safe to use hard drive shredders

“The advantage of this shredder is that it is extremely easy and safe to use.” says Springer. The HSM Powerline HDS hard drive shredder is designed for longevity, with a sturdy, solid-steel cutting unit and a powerful, robust drive. The unit’s high throughput capacity and energy-saving continuous operation makes it an intelligent choice for reducing the carbon footprint.

“Pitney Bowes firmly believes in finding creative and user-friendly alternatives to both the common and specialised challenges faced by its clients. The introduction of the HSM Powerline HDS hard drive shredder into our portfolio of products is a classic example of our customer-centric business philosophy. Apart from its benefits to clients in terms of reduced security risk, the product also performs well on the environmental sustainability front, making it a perfect match for our existing product range,” Springer concludes.
