Combi0030 NSA/CSS Approved Cross-Cut Shredder Demo
Product Details
The Formax Combi 0030 is an NSA/CSS approved high-security shredder built for classified document destruction. This video demonstrates the Combi0030 in operation — including its cross-cut shred pattern, throughput, and the bin design certified for use in Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities (SCIFs) and federal secure environments.
What this video shows: The Combi0030 processing classified-equivalent documents at operating speed, producing the cross-cut particle size required by NSA/CSS Evaluated Products List (EPL) specifications.
Who must use NSA/CSS approved shredders: U.S. federal agencies handling classified material — Department of Defense, intelligence community, State Department classified processing centers. Defense contractors operating under NISPOM and handling classified deliverables. Federal civilian agencies destroying CUI (Controlled Unclassified Information). Cleared facility security officers (FSOs) maintaining SCIF compliance. Any organization with classified material falling under E.O. 13526.
Why NSA approval matters: The NSA/CSS Evaluated Products List (EPL) for high-security shredders is the federal standard for classified document destruction. Only shredders that produce particle sizes meeting NSA spec — and that pass independent testing — are listed. Using a non-EPL-listed shredder for classified material is a security incident, regardless of how good the shred quality looks.
Key specs: NSA/CSS EPL listed for high-security paper destruction | Cross-cut shred pattern, NSA-spec particle size | Production-tier sheet capacity per pass | NSA-spec bin retention and disposal compatible | TAA compliant, U.S. federal procurement eligible

Frequently asked
Is the Combi0030 listed on the current NSA/CSS EPL?
Yes — the Combi0030 is on the NSA/CSS Evaluated Products List for high-security paper destruction. The EPL is the federal standard; using a non-EPL-listed shredder for classified material is a security incident regardless of perceived shred quality.
Can the Combi0030 destroy other media beyond paper (CDs, microfilm)?
The Combi0030 is rated for high-security paper destruction. For other media (optical disks, microfilm, hard drives), dedicated EPL-listed destruction equipment for that specific media is the right path.
Does the Combi0030 meet TAA requirements for federal procurement?
Yes — the Combi0030 is TAA compliant and eligible for federal procurement under GSA and similar contracts. Confirm specific contract eligibility for your acquisition path with a Mailtech specialist.
