The Challenge: Managing Confidential Waste in an Educational Setting
Ormiston Six Villages Academy faced ongoing challenges in managing its confidential waste processes. They struggled to find a reliable company that offered clear information about the disposal of sensitive documents. Before joining Avena, they found significant variations in pricing that made budgeting difficult. Overall, the process became time-consuming and created extra work for staff.
The Solution: A Secure, Compliant System with SecrAll®
Ormiston Six Villages Academy has partnered with Avena to roll out the SecurAll® service across its campus. Secure, locked consoles have been installed, removing the need for on-site shredding. Each collection is fully traceable through a comprehensive audit trail, with materials securely transported to accredited facilities for shredding. The process guarantees complete destruction, provides all necessary compliance documentation, and ensures that 100% of the collected material is recycled.
The Result: Carbon Savings and Full GDPR Compliance
Through their partnership with Avena and adoption of the SecurAll® service, Ormiston Six Villages Academy is projected to achieve 875kg of CO2e in annual carbon savings. In addition to environmental benefits, they are now fully GDPR compliant, ensuring secure and responsible handling of sensitive data. Communication throughout the process has been consistently excellent, reflecting a strong and collaborative relationship.
