Vecoplan adds ReTech[TM] line of single-shaft rotary paper shredders.

Vecoplan LLC, High Point, N.C., has launched a new line of paper shredders designed specifically for medium-to-high volume, plant-based document destruction.

The "P" series paper shredders are available in several models and are designed to shred from 200 pounds an hour at the smaller end to 40 tons per hour for the largest model.

The ReTech single-shaft series by Vecoplan use a positive-feed ram that advances material into a low-rpm, high-torque cutting rotor that produces particles of a cross-shred consistency. Screened output allows checks, credit cards and some products to be shredded from a 3/8-inch to 2-inch consistency.

Vecoplan COO Len Beusse says, "The reception of this new product has been overwhelming. The document destruction service industry has proliferated to a point that a new, more efficient shredding technology is a sorely needed breath of fresh air. Our shredding concept has opened up many new doors for our customers. This segment is so vibrant, Vecoplan will soon be unveiling its mobile document destruction vehicles.
