Industrial & High-Security Shredders

We stock new Formax industrial conveyor shredders and high-security models, including several NSA-listed and NSA-evaluated units. Every machine ships nationwide with phone support before and after the sale. Below the machines: our plain-English guide to choosing an industrial or high-security shredder, and answers to the questions we hear most.

How to choose an industrial or high-security shredder

The deciding spec is security level, not throughput. If you handle classified, government, or otherwise regulated sensitive material, you likely need a specific NSA-listed or NSA-evaluated security level; several models in this category carry that rating and several do not. Confirm your required level before you look at speed or capacity.

Once security level is set, match the machine to your volume. Conveyor-fed industrial shredders in this category run continuously and are built for high daily paper volume, sometimes paired with a baler; deskside high-security units handle lower volume for a single secure workstation. Tell us your daily paper volume and whether you need continuous or intermittent operation.

A few models in this category are purpose-built for specific media — optical discs alongside paper, or casino-floor destruction of cards, dice, and chips. Tell us what you are destroying and we will point you to the model actually built for it.

Industrial and high-security shredder questions

What does "NSA-listed" or "NSA-evaluated" mean?
These terms mean a shredder has been tested against National Security Agency destruction standards for classified or highly sensitive material. Not every model in this category carries this rating — check the individual listing, or tell us your requirement and we will confirm.

What security level do I actually need?
That depends on what you are destroying and any regulatory or contractual requirement you are under. If you don't already have a required level specified, call us and we will help you figure out what applies to your material.

Can these shredders run continuously all day?
The conveyor-fed industrial models in this category are built for continuous, high-volume operation. Deskside high-security units are generally intended for lower, intermittent volume. Tell us your daily paper volume and we will match you to the right duty cycle.

Do any of these shredders destroy optical media alongside paper?
Yes — several high-security models in this category are rated to destroy paper and optical discs together. Check the individual listing or tell us what media you need destroyed.

Is there a shredder built for casino or gaming floor use?
Yes, this category includes casino-specific models built to destroy playing cards, dice, and chips, with camera-monitored options available.

Is delivery and installation available on these machines?
Nationwide delivery, installation and operator training are available on any machine we sell, quoted per machine and location.
