PHS Datashred provides secure document shredding and recycling services to ensure confidential information is disposed of properly. They have 12 destruction centers nationwide and offer on-site and off-site shredding, as well as recycling services for paper, IT equipment, and other materials. PHS Datashred aims to reuse or recycle 100% of redundant IT equipment and electronic waste securely.
2. WHOWEARE
PHS Datashred has the knowledge, capability and
experience to ensure the safe and secure disposal
of your confidential material.
Trusted by over a third of FTSE 100 companies, and many public
sector organisations, our service levels are second to none.
With 12 destruction centres strategically located nationwide,
we provide a national service with local response.
The secure and safe management of your confidential waste
materials should be at the forefront of your organisation’s security.
With ID fraud on the rise coupled with increasingly stringent
penalties for data security breaches, businesses and the public
sector alike need to ensure their information is secure, even when
no longer in use.
To help ensure the necessary data security measures are in place,
PHS Datashred works with customers to provide a safe and secure
solution for the shredding of confidential materials, including paper,
ID cards, uniforms, hard drives, CDs, USBs and microfiche.
Authorised to BS EN 15713:2009 (security shredding standard)
PHS Datashred has the capability of shredding confidential
materials, either on the client’s site for added security, or off site
at one of our 12 secure destruction centres.
To support our shredding service, we provide a range of secure
containers for the storage and collection of confidential materials,
including sacks, cabinets, indoor bins, wheelie bins and exterior
storage facilities.
PHS Datashred operates a zero landfill policy, and therefore in
addition to the secure paper shredding and recycling services,
we also offer a wide range of further recycling solutions for
businesses. Materials that can be collected include plastic bottles,
cans, glass, IT equipment and WEEE, cardboard and toner cartridges.
A variety of suitable storage containers are available for these types
of waste, designed to fit in with the office environment and be easy
to use.
At PHS Datashred, we aim to distribute as much refurbished and
wiped IT and computer equipment for reuse as possible, with the
option of recycling for equipment that is no longer usable.
SECURITY
The Data Protection Act is in place to ensure that businesses and
organisations make every endeavour to keep their confidential
information safe and secure at all times. This includes customer
details, employee records, supplier information as well as plans,
budgets and meeting notes - anything that could be used for
fraudulent purposes.
Failing to comply with the Data Protection Act could incur a fine
of up to £500,000 from the Information Commissioner’s Office
(ICO). Just as important as protecting yourself from prosecution,
stringent information security measures are also necessary to
protect your organisation’s reputation, competitive edge and
stakeholder confidence.

3. WHATWEDO
ITRECYCLING
As an organisation, you handle confidential
information on a daily basis, yet many businesses
fail to recognise that redundant computer
equipment may also contain confidential
information that you are legally and morally
obliged to dispose of appropriately.
Our service ensures that 100% of your
organisation’s redundant IT equipment and WEEE
is reused or recycled, without exposing your
confidential information to potential misuse.
All equipment is securely wiped to HMG Infosec
5 Baseline/Enhanced standard and tested for
safety before being reused. All equipment is
processed here in the UK, and through our
ongoing partnerships with charitable
organisations, we provide much needed
equipment for community projects.
OFFICERECYCLING
Commercial waste disposal can cost UK
businesses up to 5% of turnover, and with
Landfill Tax on top of transport and disposal
charges, this cost escalates every year.
Implementing a comprehensive recycling
programme could save a significant amount of
money.
We can create a tailored solution to suit your
organisation’s needs, providing the most cost
effective and environmentally responsible
disposal routes for all waste streams, including
our award winning closed loop paper recycling
scheme.
A range of bins and containers are available to
help you collect and store your recyclable waste
on site, prior to collection.
ON-SITE&OFF-SITESHREDDING
Designed to give peace of mind to customers
dealing with highly sensitive information, our
on-site shredding service provides an immediate
solution with an enhanced level of security. Your
confidential material will be collected by security
checked staff and shredded there and then in one
of our mobile shredding vehicles.
Our off-site shredding service offers a more cost
effective, yet reliable solution, tailored to meet the
needs of your organisation. Your confidential
material will be collected in security tracked and
locked vehicles, and transported to one of our
destruction centres for shredding.
As an authorised ISO9001 company, incorporating
BS EN15713 security shredding standard, you can
be confident that our processes and procedures
meet the very highest industry standards.
PRODUCTDESTRUCTION
It’s not only paper documents that contain
confidential information. Many other materials
can be used for fraudulent purposes if they fall
into the wrong hands.
For example, ID cards and badges, uniforms and
PPE could be used to falsely gain access to an
organisation’s site, or a client’s home. If not
disposed of correctly, counterfeit or faulty goods
could be sold on to the public, potentially
damaging a brand and its reputation.
Our secure destruction process ensures these
potentially damaging materials are removed
from the open market and your customers,
clients and the general public are protected from
fraudulent activity.
