Cut Types of Paper Shredders
At Whitaker Brothers, our paper shredders are made up of three different cut types: strip cut, cross-cut, and micro-cut. Each cut type produces unique particles when shredding a sheet of paper.
Strip-cut shredders result in the paper being sliced into strips, while cross-cut (or particle cut) shredders involve cutting the paper both horizontally and vertically, creating small particles. Micro-cut shredders tear the paper into tinier particles, making them ideal high-security shredders.

Frequently Asked Question
They are both effective, but compared to cross-cut shredders, micro-cut shredders can produce much smaller particles.

Whitaker Brothers paper shredders can destroy anything from multi-page documents to a year's worth of records.
Look for a document shredder that has anti-jam or jam-proof technologies, as this will help prevent paper jams. A paper shredder should also have heightened security features if it is used in the home office or a school environment.
If you don’t oil your paper shredder, paper dust and other residue will build up inside of the cutting mechanism. After a long time, this residue can become packed together and cause sheets to stick to the paper shredder. As a result, shredders need shredder oil to continue to function properly and continuously.
