The increasing privacy and data security concerns, demand for paper shredders is expected to rise steadily across both commercial and residential segments. Office records containing sensitive information require proper disposal and paper shredders provide an effective solution.
Stringent data protection laws worldwide will further drive compliance and adoption of paper shredders. Growing digitalization and remote working trends amid the pandemic have also spiked the need for paper shredding at home. North America currently dominates paper shredders sales due to well-established data security protocols. However, Asia Pacific is likely to emerge as the fastest growing market attributed to increased awareness and electronics adoption in countries like China, India, and South Korea.
Availability of used and refurbished products online poses a challenge for manufacturers. However, ongoing product innovation around design, features and shredding capacity is expected to improve demand. Leading brands are launching versatile models suitable for both home and commercial spaces.
