cost. With Fellowes®AutoMax™300C and 500C, in-house

business, boosting productivity. Shredding jobs can now be
taken care of faster than having to wait for outsourced

getting into the wrong hands.

glossy paper, stapled or paper clipped
paper - even CD/DVDs, lock and
walk away. That’s it... really. Better
productivity has never been so
easy and cost so little.
