Tape & Media Destruction Service

Tape Drive and Media Destruction : Physical destruction for every format that holds sensitive data

Backup tapes hold full system snapshots. Deletion and overwriting do not meet GDPR requirements. We destroy them to a certified standard with a full audit trail.
Video and CCTV footage is personal data under UK data protection law. Unwiped tapes create liability long after the cameras are removed.
CDs and DVDs are easy to snap but the data survives. Physical shredding removes any possibility of recovery.
Floppy disks are decades old and frequently overlooked in storage. The data remains readable and remains your legal responsibility.
External hard drives hold enormous volumes of data. Formatting does not destroy it. Certified physical destruction does.
USB drives and memory sticks are the most commonly misplaced devices in any office. Only destruction holds up under an ICO investigation.
