Fellowes AutoMax 450C Auto Feed Cross Cut Shredder - Black

The AutoMax 450C is a high-capacity cross-cut shredder designed for busy offices. It can automatically shred up to 450 sheets and manually shred 13 sheets of 70gsm paper per pass into 4 x 38mm particles (DIN P-4). The unit features a large 68-litre pull-out bin with a clear window for easy waste monitoring, and built-in castor wheels for easy relocation. With SilentShred technology, shredding is quieter in shared workspaces, while a SmartLock system lets you secure the shredder with a 4‑digit PIN during operation. The 450C can handle staples, paper clips, credit cards and CDs/DVDs through the manual slot, and is designed to run continuously for up to 45 minutes before a 30-minute cooling period is required. It also includes Auto-Reverse to prevent jams and Sleep Mode to reduce energy use after inactivity.

For security and compliance, the 450C produces unreadable cross-cut output suitable for confidential documents, and Fellowes emphasises reliability and quality assurance through rigorous testing. The model is backed by a two-year machine warranty (with an option to extend for an additional year) and a limited lifetime cutter warranty, supported by access to customer service. It is built to withstand high-volume office use with solid steel cutters and a robust motor, prioritising durability and performance in demanding environments.

For added convenience, the shredder is designed for easy mobility and maintenance. The large bin provides ample disposal capacity, the window allows quick checks of paper levels, and the machine can be moved easily using its castor wheels.
