Materials and Product Destruction

Product Destruction is often the only way to eliminate the liability associated with the distribution of your recalled, out of spec and counterfeit products as well as the improper use of your outdated packaging.

Historically, the people who raid your dumpsters for recalled, out of spec products or packaging are your own employees. They know what the product is worth and can sell the items on the internet or at flea markets.  Consider the idea of your packaging being stolen… Anyone can put anything in the packaging, and the liability will likely fall on you, even if the packaging was stolen from your dumpster.

The best way to protect yourself is to ensure destruction of anything that could hurt you if the “wrong person” got hold of it. Another threat includes your competitors coming into possession of your prototypes or models. Stay safe, when in doubt, destroy the products. Think of this as protection and Insurance of your Corporate brand name.
