A cardboard shredder uses a set of rotating blades that perforate

cardboard packaging into matting which is ideal as both protective wrapping and void fill.

The unwanted or waste cardboard is fed into the shredder

through a designated opening, where it is then pulled towards the cutting

blades, often on a central rotor.

Heavier-duty cardboard shredders typically have more

powerful motors and multiple rotors to handle thicker cardboard boxes and

materials – ensuring a consistent shred size is achieved.

Although dust extractors are not compulsory for cardboard

shredders, they can be beneficial.

Cardboard shredding machines can help reduce your carbon

footprint and improve your eco-friendly credentials while a dust extraction

unit reduces the dust produced.

The dust extractor unit collects airborne particles and

makes the working environment much safer for staff. 

Our dust extractor by Charnwood is compatible with most of

our Cushion Pack cardboard shredders.

If you’d like to know more about these systems or how your

business could benefit from a dust extraction unit, get in touch today.

Yes, cardboard shredding machines require minimal
maintenance to ensure smooth, hassle-free operation.

In most cases, all you need to do is switch it off, remove
any paper jams, and wipe down the exterior with a slightly damp cloth.

Remembering to empty the collection bin will prevent the
shredded cardboard from spilling out and lubricating the cutting blades will
help prolong the life of your cardboard shredder.
