The East Kilbride-based company will undertake on-site destruction of documents for the Scottish hospital trust. Shred-it has a fleet of vehicles fitted out with shredders which visit the sites that it services. After documents are shredded a certificate of destruction is issued and the paper confetti turned into a variety of paper products.
Klaas Dykstra, general manager of Shred-it Glasgow, said: “Health professionals in Lanarkshire are very conscious of their commitment to the highest possible standards of patient confidentiality and are taking substantial steps to ensure across-the-board best practice.
"We are glad to be able to enhance Lanarkshire's commitment to regulatory compliance and information security as well as helping it to maintain its excellent environmental and recycling philosophy."
