In addition to providing top-notch security, we are committed to sustainability.

The paper is then shredded and sent off for recycling, ensuring that no paper goes to waste. By choosing our services, you can feel good knowing that you are not only protecting your

What happens to our paper after you shred it?

To safeguard the environment, all shredded materials are baled and recycled. We then transport these materials to paper mills, where they are re-pulped and transformed into reusable paper products. This process not only helps to reduce the amount of waste in landfills, but also conserves natural resources and reduces greenhouse gas emissions. At Knighthorst, we are committed to promoting sustainable practices in all aspects of our business. This includes our shredding services, where we make sure that every shred of paper is put to good use.

By recycling paper, we are able to save trees and decrease the demand for new paper production. This in turn helps to preserve forests and their ecosystems, which play a crucial role in regulating our climate.
