What is a Cross-cut Shredder?

Cross-cut shredders are equipped with two blades that cut the paper against each other. The result is paper chopped into small pieces, which corresponds to a high degree of document classification, perfect for destroying highly-sensitive documents. If you need a shredder for less sensitive documents,  a strip-cut shredder is sufficiant.
