Kensington OfficeAssist Auto Feed Shredder A3000-HS Anti-Jam Micro Cut

The Kensington OfficeAssist Auto Feed Shredder A3000-HS Anti-Jam Micro Cut is the smart solution for modern offices that demand security, efficiency, and reliability from their document disposal workflow. Built to handle the pace of a busy workspace, this shredder blends hands-free convenience with high-security micro-cut shredding to protect confidential information while keeping your team productive. Designed with a focus on ease of use and minimal downtime, the A3000-HS helps administrative staff, reception desks, and small to mid-sized offices maintain a clean, organized environment without sacrificing privacy or performance. Combining Kensington’s trusted engineering with intuitive controls, this shredder turns a once tedious task into a seamless part of daily operations.

• Auto feed for hands-free shredding – Load a stack of documents and let the shredder do the work. The auto feed feature reduces manual feeding, allowing employees to focus on other tasks while large batches—like monthly reports, client files, or mailings—are processed efficiently. This capability is ideal for front desks, administrative assistants, and shared office spaces where time is at a premium.
• Micro-cut security for maximum privacy – When privacy matters, micro-cut shredding delivers finer particle sizes for superior data protection. The A3000-HS is designed to turn sensitive papers into small, unreadable shreds, making it considerably harder for anyone to reconstruct discarded documents. This level of security is particularly important for financial records, legal documents, and other materials requiring careful disposal.
• Anti-jam technology to keep work flowing – Jam-free performance is a cornerstone of high-efficiency shredding. The Anti-Jam design actively detects overloads, triggers protective measures, and uses smart reversing to minimize downtime. With fewer interruptions, teams maintain momentum during busy periods and avoid frustrating workflow breaks.
• Quiet operation and reliable performance – Built to support open-office environments, the A3000-HS emphasizes smooth, quiet operation that won’t disrupt teammates. Coupled with robust construction and thoughtful engineering, this shredder sustains steady performance throughout the workday, helping you maintain a professional atmosphere in shared spaces.
• Durable design with user-friendly maintenance – The OfficeAssist model emphasizes durability and ease of maintenance. A sturdy build, accessible waste bin, and straightforward disposal workflow reduce upkeep time and extend service life. This makes it a practical choice for teams seeking a long-term shredding solution that simply works without requiring constant attention.
