In order to protect our National Security, military and government agencies require higher levels of security from their paper shredders. With this in mind, the U.S. Department of Defense has increased the requirements for the destruction of Top Secret COMSEC documents. NSA/CSS Specification 02-01 is the new standard for maximum particle area and maximum particle dimensions as well as setting a tough standard for machine durability.

Depending on your daily shredding, Dahle High Security Shredders are available in 4 different ranges including Small Office (20434), Office (20634 EC, 33134), Department (20835 EC), and High Capacity (20394). But don't confuse size with ability. Whether you're shredding 100 sheets per day or 28,000, all Dahle High Security Shredders are serious machines capable of reducing an 8 1/2" x 11" sheet of paper into over 15,500 tiny particles. These particles are so small that they have been rendered impossible to reassemble. For immediate assistance in choosing a High Security Shredder that best fits your needs, contact our Customer Service Team at (800) 992-5279 or send us an eMail.
