Swingline® Provides Users with Real-Time Notifications about their Shredding Jobs with the First-Ever Smart Shredder Utilizing SmarTech™ Technology

LAKE ZURICH, Ill., Jan. 22, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The Swingline® SmarTech™ Shredder is leading the way in innovation, featuring SmarTech technology paired with a SmarTech app that allows users to receive real-time notifications and alerts about their shredding jobs.

This new line of Stack-and-Shred™ Auto Feed Shredders is the first of its kind with SmarTech technology and is the first Smart Shredder in the U.S. market after being launched in January of 2018. SmarTech Shredders improve the shredding experience by allowing users to get real-time notifications through the SmarTech app; giving peace of mind that the user will always know when the shredding job is complete or if it was interrupted for any reason. Users can also manage multiple shredders at one time to see if the shredders are low on oil and if the bins are full.

Sumita Ghosh, Director, Disruptive Innovation at ACCO Brands, commented on the new line of shredders. "We are excited to be the first to market with a Smart Shredder and push the boundaries of shredding."
