New law and need for security feed demand for document shredders
by Kevin J. ShayStaff Writer
July 8, 2005
Copyright © 2005 The Gazette - ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
The federal government's efforts to crack down on identity theft have bolstered an already-burgeoning industry: document shredders.
The Federal Trade Commission's Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003, which took effect last month, requires companies to destroy consumer report documents such as credit reports, insurance claims and residential and medical histories.
Industry experts expect the shredding trend to snowball.
"There is already another generation of federal and state laws on the horizon that will be even stronger," said Bob Johnson, executive director of the National Association for Information Destruction in Phoenix, an industry organization with more than 500 members.
There are about 2,000 companies in the U.S. and Canada that destroy documents, about triple the number in 2000, Johnson said. That number should continue to grow, aided by the new laws, he said.
About 9.9 million Americans fall prey to identity theft each year, according to an FTC random telephone survey in 2003. A similar survey by Javelin Strategy and Research of Pleasanton, Calif., and the Better Business Bureau released earlier this year put the number at 9.3 million for 2004, down from 10.1 million in a Javelin report in 2003.

Fellowes Urges Consumers to Combat ID Theft
Identity theft is one of America’s fastest growing crimes. According to a recent Federal Trade Commission report, nearly 10 million people in the last year alone have been victims of identity theft, costing them $5 billion in out-of-pocket expenses and costing businesses a total of almost $48 billion. Fellowes, Inc., one of the nation’s leading manufacturers of paper shredders for home and office use, offers tips on the proper disposal of personal documents – key to reducing this devastating crime.
What to Shred
Always destroy any discarded documents that contain personal identifiers and account numbers, such as the following:
What to Shred
Always destroy any discarded documents that contain personal identifiers and account numbers, such as the following:
- Obsolete financial records
- Pre-approved credit card applications
- Personal medical records
- Correspondence and tax preparation worksheets
- Receipts
- Credit card statements
- Telephone bills
- Cancelled checks and bank statements
- Mail and old records
- Insurance forms
- Physician statements
- Expired charge cards
- Mailing labels from magazines
Fellowes has seen double digit increases in shredder sales in the past year as more consumers are becoming aware of the growing threat of ID theft. “Consumers are increasingly translating awareness into action,” said John Fellowes, Product Manager for Fellowes, Inc. “News about the increase in identity theft is pervading conversations as never before, and more and more consumers are going out and buying shredders to protect themselves.”
When selecting a shredder, keep in mind the following guidelines to reduce or minimize the risk of becoming a victim of identity theft:
Security Levels - Some shredders offer a “strip cut,” which provides cost-effective, good security by shredding paper into unreadable strips. Another type of shredder to consider, which goes one step further for added security, is a confetti (or cross-cut) shredder, which produces smaller, confetti like pieces. The finer cut also significantly reduces waste bulk, which means not emptying the basket as often.
Daily Usage and Sheet Capacity - Think about how much shredding will be done in a day then double it. Most users shred twice as much as they think they will. The biggest difference between shredders is the varying levels of motor efficiency, duty cycle and speed. Also, it is important to keep in mind the number of pages the user can feed through it.
Specialty Shredding - Today’s shredders do more than just shred documents. For example, Fellowes’ newest model, the Powershred® PS70-2CD Strip Cut Shredder, is designed to cut up credit cards, paperclips, staples and even compact discs – valuable features in today’s information age.

FACTA Disposal Rule Recommends Businesses to Destroy Documents
Nearly 10 million people last year were victims of identity theft, according to the Federal Trade Commission. With these crimes showing no signs of weakening, the FTC proposed recent regulations entitled "Disposal of Consumer Report Information and Records," which were drafted pursuant to section 216 of The Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003, setting a consistent standard for disposing consumer report information and records.
As identity theft continues to be a major threat to consumers in the United States, there are certain basic steps that have become appropriate, in order to prevent the crime from happening again and again, according to the FACTA Disposal Rule. Destroying or shredding paper records containing consumer information is generally recommended by the FTC, according to the new act. Depending upon the volume of personal records, this method of destruction can be accomplished easily with the purchase of a shredder.
"Identity theft is our nation's fastest growing crime, and as a result, the demand for shredders has increased dramatically," said John Fellowes, shredder marketing manager for Fellowes, Inc. "Fellowes even makes shredders that are powerful enough to safely destroy compact discs as well as paper, accommodating the need to destroy material stored electronically."
Fellowes, Inc. the global leader in shredders, recommends a cross cut shredder for the highest level of document security.

What To Seek In Paper Shredders
(CBS) A law goes into effect June 1 requiring anyone who has one or more employees and keeps their personal information on paper, such as Social Security numbers, to destroy the records before throwing them away.
That will impact more than just companies. Families who employ a nanny, for example, will need a shredder. In any event, law or no law, consumer advocates say it's important for all of us to protect ourselves from identity theft, and having a shredder is a significant step in that direction.
According to the Federal Trade Commission, there were 27.3 million identity theft cases nationwide over the past five years.
But what features should you look for when buying a shredder?
Consumer Reports magazine Managing Editor Kim Kleman stops by The Early Show to offer tips. She pointed out to co-anchor Harry Smith that the new law doesn't require anyone to get a shredder, but it does require that the records be destroyed, and shredding them "is an easy way to do that."
Kleman added that, "We don't have a rask of 'dumpster divers' throuhout the nation" going through peoples' trash to get personal information from discarded papers.
"The biggest reason there's an identify theft problem is that businesses and the government are not doing a good job protecting your personal information. But you, as a consumer, have to be vigilient, and (shredding) is a good way to do that."
The first thing to know when buying a shredder, Kleman says, is how much you think you'll be shredding at a time, to help you determine the capacity you need.
Consumer Reports recommends using a cross-cutting shredder. The other kind, strip shedders, are fast, but they produce long paper bands that can reassembled.
Cross-cut models produce finer paper, but they're slower than the simpler cutting shredders and generally will handle fewer sheets of paper at a time.
Home shredders range from about $29.99 to $150. The less expensive ones will need a longer cooling down period after shredding for a few minutes. This can be inconvenient if you need to shred a lot of paper.
There are shredders on the market now that will cut through credit cards, CDs, diskettes and staples. Be aware of whether your machine takes staples. Too many staples could damage it.
Follow the instructions, Kleman stresses. Avoid overheating the machine. Most shredders come with a trash can to hold the paper. The Early Show had several types of shredders on hand:
Twelve-sheet strip-cut shredder: This is the type not to have if you're shredding personal information. The paper shreds into quarter-inch strips, large enough for someone to piece back together.
A small desk paper shredder: Its features include a five inch paper entry slot, the ability to cut three pages at a time, a wire-mesh metal wastebasket, and a pencil sharpener and letter opener (most shredders don't have that).
Eight-sheet Cross-Cut Shredder: This one is a medium duty shredder (it can be used 50 times a day). It shreds up to 9.84 feet of paper per minute. It can also shreds credit cards. Its size: 14 w/5"H x 8 1/5" W x 16 1/2"
Ten-Sheet Cross-Cut Shredder: This one can do heavy-duty work. It shreds CDs, diskettes and credit cards. It has auto-start and stop for convenience, can be operated with only one hand, and sports a metal mesh bin. It shreds paper into 5/32" x 1/38" confetti-sized pieces, and shreds up to 7.55' per minute.
Fifteen-Sheet Cross-Cut Shredder: This one is really more appropriate for an office. It has a thermal shutoff with LED warning, and automatically stops shredding when it gets too hot. Its reverse function can clear paper jams. It also has a pullout plastic bin. It shreds paper into confetti-sized pieces, and shreds up to 4.9 feet of paper per minute.

Proper disposal of personal documents is also essential for preventing identity theft, the nation's fastest growing crime. According to the National Crime Prevention Council, a paper shredder is an invaluable tool for ensuring personal records don't end up in the wrong hands.
"Five years ago, shredders were used primarily by businesses, but today, paper shredders have become as commonplace as personal computers in the home office," said John Fellowes, shredder marketing manager for Fellowes, Inc. "It's Fellowes' goal to continue to offer innovative shredding solutions that anticipate consumer needs." The new line of Fellowes shredders feature the following enhanced capabilities:
- Higher Level of Safety - Most machines are equipped with a Safety Lockout Function, which provides consumers with peace of mind when the machine is not in use.

Other shredders are designed with the paper entry angled toward the user, which leaves the top of the shredder free for paper or general storage. All shredders feature designs that allow the user to empty the shedder more easily to minimize paper mess.
- Ease of Use - Machines designed for home environments now feature a Pivoting/Rotating Head and Single Handle to simplify emptying the waste bin.

Home office and small office shredders in the new line also include LED Indicator Lights to help the user identify problems quickly. All of the new shredders are equipped with a Sheet Capacity Selector, so users can quickly measure the appropriate amount of sheets the shredder can shred at once, thus minimizing jams.
