Banknote printing waste
destruction

A two-stage process

Each system offers efficient, cost-effective and environmentally friendly disintegration of misprinted banknotes, whether they are in sheets, reams, cut-strips, trimmings or complete banknote packages. Designed with precision, these solutions ensure secure and reliable handling of unfit currency for clients who demand the highest standards in compliance and sustainability.

The technology centres on a proven two-stage process, beginning with pre-cutting by means of an integrated guillotine. This first step quickly reduces bulk materials into manageable pieces, optimising preparation for the next phase. The second stage, granulation, further processes the pre-cut material into fine, uniform particles, ensuring complete destruction and eliminating the risk of re-entry into circulation.

By integrating advanced engineering and robust safety features, these systems not only meet rigorous regulatory requirements but also support global sustainability initiatives. The entire process is designed for minimal energy consumption and reduced environmental impact, giving central banks, mints, and printing works confidence in both operational efficiency and environmental responsibility.
