Confidential Shredding for Cardiff Businesses
Cardiff’s businesses and organisations — from city centre law firms and financial services companies to NHS bodies and local authority departments — carry significant obligations around the secure disposal of confidential documents. UK GDPR requires that personal data is destroyed securely at end of retention. Sector regulators including the SRA, FCA, and ICO all expect evidenced disposal processes.
The Maltings provides Cardiff businesses with a fully managed confidential shredding service — secure collection, certified destruction, and a certificate of destruction for every job that satisfies the audit requirements of Cardiff’s most regulated sectors.
One-Off and Scheduled Shredding in Cardiff
For one-off clearances — office relocations, archive disposals, building decommissions — we collect from your Cardiff premises, carry out certified destruction, and issue the certificate. For organisations with ongoing confidential waste, scheduled contracts provide regular collection at a frequency that suits your volume, with locked consoles placed at your premises and collection handled on schedule.
Shredding for Cardiff’s Regulated Sectors
Cardiff’s legal, financial, and public sector organisations face specific compliance requirements around document disposal. Our process is built around these requirements — chain-of-custody records document every stage from collection to destruction, and the certificate of destruction provides the documentary evidence required by the SRA, FCA, ICO, and NHS information governance frameworks.
End-of-Retention Shredding for Stored Documents
For Cardiff organisations using our off-site storage, shredding integrates directly into the retention management process. We monitor retention periods, alert you when records are due for destruction, and carry out certified disposal on your instruction — with the certificate issued automatically to your compliance records.
