Productivity at work isn't just about retaining the best employees.

Although the saying goes it’s a bad worker that blames their tools, in some circumstances staff are hindered by archaic systems, poor communication and lack of up to date resources.

If your workplace is looking to purchase a new shredder or replace an outdated model, there are three key questions that you should ask yourself during the research process:

• How much do you need to shred and how often?
• What levels of security does your business need from a shredder?
• What features does your shredder need?
