It’s simple to assume that shredding is simply another means to throw out paper. However, when done properly, it’s anything but wasteful. At Jessica’s Shredding Team, we go above and beyond to ensure that every document we destroy doesn’t simply vanish; it contributes to an overall movement toward sustainability.
The reality is, paper shredding can be a part of a healthy cycle. We don’t simply shred and send it off to the dump. All we shred is processed to be recycled into useful paper products. That equates to less waste going into the landfills and more support for an already existing system for reuse and recycling.
What Goes On After The Shredding Is Done
The path doesn’t cease at the shredder. After your documents are reduced to confetti, they are baled and shipped off to regional recycling plants. There, they get sorted and converted into fresh paper, think tissue products, packaging, and recycled office paper.
This system keeps loads and loads of material out of landfills. Literally, one ton of recycled paper saves 17 trees, 4,000 kilowatt hours of electricity, and more than 7,000 gallons of water. Do that for the number of companies regularly shredding, and you can see the impact adds up quickly.
