EvaStore achieve early certification to the new BS EN 15713:2023 standard.

EvaStore are proud to announce that they have recently achieved certification to the new BS EN 15713:2023 standard, earlier than most providers of secure shredding services. This standard was published in the UK in September of 2023 and will come into force when the 2009 version is withdrawn at the end of March 2024.

The BS EN 15713:2023 standard sets out best practice for the destruction of confidential material, from paper documents to hard drives. The new standard is much more robust than the 2009 standard and sets a modern benchmark for our industry that correlates more with the requirements of regulations such as GDPR and increasingly high demands to keep information secure.

At EvaStore Limited we have always striven to provide the very best service to our customers and therefore we welcomed the publication of this revised standard. It should ensure that those working within our industry are working to the highest of security and data destruction standards, giving customers utmost peace of mind that, if they choose a provider like EvaStore that has achieved this certification, they are working with a secure shredding provider that they can trust.
