Ameri-Shred cross-cut paper shredders
Ameri-Shred’s Series 3, 4 and 5 shredders can be used to create flexible double-cut systems that use two strip-cut shredders. Double-cut systems consist of a primary and a secondary shredder. The primary shredder is designed to optimize throughput while the secondary shredder provides the security of a smaller cut.
Ameri-Shred Series 2 cross-cut shredders can be used with a strip-cut shredder to produce a double cut.
Ameri-Shred Series 1 cross-cut paper shredders are designed for high-volume, centralized shredding. They are available in 3 to 10 horsepower with a choice of three cross cuts. They also shred corrugated boxes, credit cards and DVDs.
