Confidential Waste

Securely shredding your confidential data and documents.

Bywaters is proud to announce the opening of our new, purpose built, in-house confidential security shredding facility, where all confidential material will be securely destroyed and recycled in compliance with strict legal requirements.

Containers are fitted with high security locks, unique to Bywaters Confidential, another industry leading initiative. The modern container has been designed to fit into any office environment, fitted with easy to use handles and hidden wheels to ensure they blend with any office scheme.

Designed as a bagless system, to save cost and for a greater convenience, there is no need to remove staples or paperclips, just put all your confidential documents in the locked container to ensure all information is stored securely prior to being shredded.

You can trust Bywaters to meet your confidential shredding requirement. We are accredited to ISO 9001: 2008 and collect and process your documents for data destruction to BS15713 standards, based on a zero-direct-to-landfill policy and legislation.
