WHO WE ARE
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.
RECYCLING
WHAT WE DO
IT RECYCLING
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.
OFFICE RECYCLING
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-SITE SHREDDING
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.
PRODUCT DESTRUCTION
It’s not only paper documents that containconfidential 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.
