Paper and cardboard shredding is a process used for volume reduction and material recovery in the paper, logistics and recycling sectors. During mechanical shredding, light fibres, cellulose dust and fine residues are released and quickly dispersed into the air. Unlike heavier particles, these low-density materials remain airborne for extended periods, accumulating in work areas and machinery. Excessive dust can cause blockages, increase maintenance and create fire risks.
Dedicated extraction and filtration systems for shredding effectively capture fibres and dust, keeping work areas clean and ensuring safer, more efficient and compliant operations.
