Fellowes Brands Announces Expansion of Innovative AutoMax™ Line of Paper Shredders
Automatic Shredders Available in Small and Home Office Models for the First Time
ITASCA, Ill., Oct. 15, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Fellowes Brands, the category leader and inventor of the personal shredder, today announces the expansion of its much-sought-after AutoMax™ line of automatic shredders. Once only available in commercial grade products, the world's first truly walk away shredding experience is now available in new models that meet the needs of small and home offices.
Unlike other auto feed shredders which have specific limitations for shredding materials, Fellowes' deskside AutoMax™ models provide reliable automatic shredding with the "walk away" promise through a proprietary AccuFeed System™. The system shreds common stacks of paper including glossy paper, double sided color printed paper and even crumpled paper easily. Simply load the drawer, push the button and walk away with confidence.
Fellowes' new AutoMax™ shredders, which include the 200C and 130C models, offer automatic Cross-Cut shredding through a full package of technologies:
- SilentShred™ which offers ultra-quiet performance for shared workspaces
- Sleep Mode that automatically shuts down the shredder after 2 minutes of inactivity
- Auto Reverse which stops and reverses paper if a jam occurs
- Pull-out bins for easy shredded material disposal
- The AutoMax™ 200C can shred up to 200 sheets of paper at a time, along with staples, paper clips and junk mail
- The AutoMax™ 130C can shred up to 130 sheets of paper at a time, along with staples and paper clips
"Whether at home or in the office, it remains vitally important that consumers protect confidential information to prevent identity fraud," said Nancy Heaton, Director of Global Marketing, Business Machines, Fellowes Brands. "The AutoMax™ line makes it easier than ever to destroy sensitive paper documents through its hands-free operation and we're thrilled to bring this innovative product to a wider range of consumers."
Since inventing the personal shredder in 1990, Fellowes has remained at the forefront of technology development, maintaining a proven track record of customer satisfaction, averaging 4.4 out of 5 stars across the line of commercial, small/home office and household shredders.
The Fellowes AutoMax 200C can be found in office catalogs and online with a suggested price of $549.99, beginning January 2015. Fellowes AutoMax 130C can be found in office catalogs and online with a suggested retail price of $329.99, beginning January 2015.
