Formax FD8806 Heavy-Duty Industrial Paper Shredder Demo
Product Details
The Formax FD8806 is an industrial-tier heavy-duty paper shredder in the Formax FD8000 series — built for enterprise document destruction at high volume. This video shows the FD8806 processing batched document loads with the sustained capacity required for daily corporate records disposal.
What this video shows: The FD8806 ingesting batched document loads through its production-tier feed, processing pages at sustained throughput, and outputting cross-cut shred to the integrated bin. The duty cycle and capacity that distinguish enterprise FD8000-series machines from departmental office shredders.
Who buys the FD8806: Enterprise records-management operations that need a large paper shredder for daily document output at scale. Corporate legal and HR departments handling confidential records disposal. Financial institutions destroying customer records under retention-policy expiration. Healthcare operations destroying PHI under HIPAA retention rules. Service providers offering secure shred-on-site or in-facility services.
Why the FD8806 tier: Below this tier, office-grade shredders cap at small-batch throughput and require frequent oil and bin emptying. Industrial paper shredders like the FD8806 are engineered for continuous-duty operation through entire shifts — a central waste shredder for a facility's entire confidential paper stream — with the bin capacity to handle daily volume without constant interruption.
Key specs: Industrial-tier cross-cut document shredder | Sustained-duty production rate | Bin: large-capacity integrated container | Substrate: paper, with auto-stop on jam detection | Footprint: floor-standing enterprise unit

Frequently asked
What security level does the FD8806 shred to?
The FD8806 produces a cross-cut particle size appropriate for confidential corporate records. For specific DIN 66399 P-level or NSA/CSS approvals, confirm the exact model and security designation with a Mailtech specialist — different FD8000-series variants meet different security tiers.
How does the FD8806 compare to the FD8904CC?
Both are FD8000-series enterprise shredders. The FD8904CC steps up bin capacity and duty cycle for the highest-volume enterprise operations. The FD8806 fits most enterprise records destruction at standard volume.
Can the FD8806 destroy staples, paper clips, and credit cards?
FD8000-series shredders typically handle staples and paper clips in their feed spec. Plastic cards (credit, ID) often go through a separate dedicated cutter — confirm spec for cards with a specialist.
Who services and maintains FD8000-series shredders?
Mailtech provides factory-trained on-site service and preventive maintenance for the full Formax FD8000 line across the NY/NJ metro — one call covers repairs, scheduled maintenance, and replacement parts sourcing.
How do you unjam a paper shredder?
Reverse the feed to back the wad out, power down, and clear the throat — never pull forward through the cutters. Industrial units like the FD8806 rarely jam at rated capacity; chronic jamming usually means overfeeding past spec or cutters overdue for service, which is a preventive-maintenance visit, not a replacement.
How often should you oil a paper shredder?
High-volume cross-cut shredders want lubrication roughly every 30 minutes of continuous run time or with each bag change — dry cutters are the top cause of capacity loss and jams. On service contracts, Mailtech handles lubrication and cutter checks as part of scheduled preventive maintenance.
