Why do I need a CopperHead Micro Cut Shredder?

In the past, shredding has been defined in terms of page count. A strip-cut shredder cuts a piece of paper into approximately 36 pieces. The average confetti-cut shredder cuts an 8.5-by-11-inch page into approximately 400 pieces. The problem with these traditional shredders is that the information that is cut is still legible and can be pieced back together.

Questa Brands™, LLC has elevated shredding to a new level with the introduction of the CopperHead™ Micro Cut Shredder product line.

The CopperHead micro shred is the new standard for high security shredding, cutting an 8.5-by-11-inch page into 3,770 pieces. The pieces are so small, no content is legible and your shredded information is safe and secure, never to be reconstructed or viewed again.

CopperHead shredders offer the best value in security, designed for the home, home office or personal office. For example, the CopperHead QCH550 produces a 2 x 8 mm micro cut shred size with a seven-sheet shred capacity. It shreds CDs and credit cards into a separate bin for easy removal.

CopperHead shredders are also environmentally friendly, yielding much less trash than strip-cut and confetti-cut shredders. One standard size kitchen trash bag holds 600 8.5-by-11-inch sheets of micro cut paper, while only holding 200 sheets of confetti-cut or 75 sheets of strip-cut paper.
