Aktenvernichtung Datarec AG, Bern

Confidential or not, many documents such as credit cards, X-rays, videos, DVDs, CDs, records, magnetic tapes, and other data storage systems must be discarded at one point or another. And volumes keep growing.

Datarec AG/SA and Datarec Ticino SA are joint ventures between Securitas and Barec. Many banks, insurance companies, civil and military authorities, as well as private companies are long-standing customers of Datarec.

Datarec AG/SA and Datarec Ticino SA are the only companies in their field to have joined the Association of Swiss Security Service Companies (VSSU). Strict security rules apply – starting with the collecting of documents by Securitas, to the final destruction of these documents.

All vehicles are equipped with sat-nav, and can be located at any time. The routes followed can thus be checked at any time. The data is stored for a two-year period. Confidential documents are transported in secured containers, and brought to bonded facilities under permanent CCTV surveillance and then loaded on a concealed conveyor belt.

Paper documents are roughly chopped in a large shredder; they are then whirled, before being finely shredded and pressed together in bales. It is then absolutely impossible to restore the papers. Confidential data is firstly rendered unreadable, and is then recycled in the most ecological way.
