HSM SECURIO C14c Cross-Cut Shredder

Meet the HSM SECURIO C14c Cross-Cut Shredder, a compact, high-security solution engineered for modern offices that demand privacy, efficiency, and a clutter-free workspace. This shredder balances performance with a space-saving footprint, making it ideal for small to medium teams, home offices handling sensitive documents, or department corners where privacy is non-negotiable. The C14c converts each page into 603 cross-cut particles, creating a dense, tamper-resistant output that significantly raises the difficulty of reconstruction—a critical feature for protecting personal data, financial records, and confidential communications. Beyond security, the C14c is designed to integrate seamlessly into busy workflows. Its robust cutting device technology is capable of shredding up to six sheets per pass, so teams waste less time feeding paper and more time focusing on core tasks. The hardened steel cutting rollers not only endure repeated use but also confidently handle staples, paper clips, and even occasional credit cards, eliminating the frustration of jam-prone blades and ensuring consistent output across varied paper weights. The result is a reliable, low-maintenance shredder that keeps sensitive information out of the wrong hands while maintaining a clean, organized office environment. Coupled with a modern, space-saving form factor, a quiet operation profile, and a user-friendly control system, the HSM SECURIO C14c transforms document disposal from a chore into a smooth, dependable part of your daily routine. Whether you’re disposing of client proposals, HR records, or invoices, you can trust the C14c to deliver secure destruction with minimal disruption to your workday.

• 6-Sheet per pass capability: The C14c is engineered to shred up to six sheets at once, accelerating daily disposal tasks and reducing the number of passes needed to clear a stack of documents. This efficiency is especially valuable in fast-paced offices where time is precious and large print runs or departmental reports accumulate quickly. The feed mechanism is designed for reliable, smooth operation, maintaining consistent performance across a variety of paper weights and densities. By streamlining shredding throughput, teams can maintain project momentum, meet tight deadlines, and comply with data protection requirements without sacrificing workflow quality. The result is a dependable, predictable shredding experience that supports productive workdays and more efficient office routines.
• 603 cross-cut particles per page: Each page is transformed into a dense field of tiny fragments, dramatically increasing data security. The 603-particle cross-cut output makes reconstruction virtually impossible, meeting stringent privacy standards for sensitive information such as personal data, financial documents, and internal communications. The high-grade cross-cut pattern also helps with waste management by producing uniform particles that compact more efficiently in the bin, reducing the frequency of bin emptying in busy offices. This level of shredding not only protects privacy but also keeps the workspace neat and organized, minimizing the risk of stray paper shards and ensuring a cleaner disposal process at the end of the day.
• Hardened steel cutting rollers: The C14c’s cutting system uses hardened steel rollers designed to withstand the wear and tear of everyday office use. They effortlessly tackle staples, paper clips, and even credit cards, delivering precise cuts and maintaining a consistent particle size over time. This durability minimizes blade replacement and maintenance, ensuring long-term performance with less downtime. The rigid rollers work in harmony with the cross-cut design to produce secure output, enabling you to shred a wide range of document types without constant intervention or blade dulling. Regular use with non-paper items is supported, giving you confidence during high-volume shredding sessions.
• Safety-first and user-friendly design: The C14c features automatic start/stop operation, a safety interlock, and foolproof controls that keep hands away from the cutting zone. Thermal protection guards against overheating after extended shredding sessions, while a reverse function helps clear jams without disassembly. The compact footprint makes it easy to place on a desk, under a cabinet, or in a small office corner, and the quieter operation helps maintain a calm work environment. A user-centric design includes clear indicators, intuitive loading, and a smooth feed that reduces resistance and jams, ensuring a seamless shredding experience even for first-time users.
• Space-saving design and easy waste disposal: The shredder’s modern, compact form factor is optimized for tight office spaces. A pull-out waste bin enables quick, clean disposal and simplifies recycling workflows, helping you keep desks tidy and productivity high. The bin is designed for easy removal and emptying, with minimal disruption to users and less time spent managing shredded material. The front-facing design makes it simple to monitor bin capacity at a glance, enabling proactive maintenance before the bin becomes full. The combination of compact design, simple waste management, and reliable performance supports a neat, professional workspace and fosters secure document practices among employees.
