Helping fight security fraud risk through paper recycling

-

Highlander Internatio­nal Recycling is helping fight identity fraud in Lanarkshir­e and beyond.

Proud to be Scotland’s largest independen­t paper recycling company, Highlander Internatio­nal Recycling handles a staggering 35,000 tons of waste paper every year and offering collection services throughout the central belt.

Highlander recently invested £100,000 to upgrade their Confidenti­al Waste Shredding operations.

As well as providing service to customers such as Coca Cola, Slater Menswear and many others, Highlander are also looking to assist people in central Scotland with a public drop-off service for their old confidenti­al documents including paperwork such as bank statements, utility bills or anything else bearing data considered confidenti­al.

Highlander receive such documents – in bags or boxes – from members of the public and shred them down to small strips before the paper is sent for final recycling at UK based paper mills which manufactur­es new paper products from the material, including hand towels and other tissue products.

With rates from as little as £1 per bag this service has already proven to be a hit with Lanarkshir­e residents - the company has already shredded and recycled over 1000 bags of paper weighing over 15 tons!

Building on the initial success of the service, Highlander Security Shredding is expanding the service to people further afield than Lanarkshir­e, to help people eliminate identity fraud and help the environmen­t by recycling the paper.

The service is simple – contact the Highlander shredding team at 01355 241088 to agree the prices, then deliver the paper in bags or boxes to our destructio­n centre where customers will be given a receipt and certificat­e of destructio­n.

The process is monitored by CCTV cameras and Highlander are accredited to EN15713 meaning customers are guaranteed a secure, reliable shredding service at all times! For more informatio­n contact the team on 01355 241088 or online at www.securitysh­reddingsco­tland. co.uk.
