Secure Destruction
NAID-certified shredding and secure product destruction, with a Certificate of Destruction for every project.
What is secure destruction?
Some material can’t be recycled like everything else. Branded product that must never reach a secondary market. Packaging carrying proprietary artwork. Pharmaceutical components with live labelling. Uniforms with your company name on them. Documents that were never meant to leave the building.
Secure product destruction is how that material stops existing; under controlled protocols, with a Certificate of Destruction that stands up to scrutiny afterwards.
The Wilmington Group Secure Destruction runs turnkey destruction programs built around what you’re destroying and what you need to prove. Material can ship to us from anywhere in the country.

Scope
We establish what the material is, how much there is, where it’s coming from, and what documentation you need at the end.
Transport
Material ships to us from anywhere in the United States or Canada, or we arrange for a on-site collection.
Chain of custody
Professional protocols govern the movement of material through the destruction process at every stage from arrival, to staging, to destruction itself.
Destruction
Dual-shaft and single-shaft shredding giving a strong per-hour capacity, so large-volume projects don’t need to be broken into batches.
Documentation
A Certificate of Destruction that will stand up to scrutiny is generated for every project, along with any other required documentation.
Recovery
Because we own recycling plants, destroyed material doesn’t go to a landfill: it is processed as feedstock through our own network.

Why NAID AAA Certification matters
Our Haw River, NC facility holds i-SIGMA NAID AAA Certification®, the highest level of certification in the industry.
i-SIGMA is the global association for secure information management, formed when NAID merged with PRISM International. Facilities it certifies undergo both scheduled and unannounced audits, verifying that documented security procedures, employee screening, secure material handling, chain-of-custody controls, and destruction processes are consistently followed. For our customers, this means confidence backed by independent, ongoing verification.
If your organization needs to show its work, this is what that looks like:
- Independent verification: Our processes are evaluated by trained third-party auditors, on a schedule we don’t control.
- Documented chain of custody: Material is controlled from receipt through final destruction, with records to prove it.
- Compliance support: Our processes can help meet vendor due-diligence and information-protection requirements.
- Proper documentation: Every project generates a Certificate of Destruction confirming what was destroyed and when.
