Destruction Process:

A CD-ROM is made up of multiple layers: Data resides in the information layer of pits and lands. Data is a sequence of 9 unique spaces of lands and 9 unique sizes of pits. Data is imbedded in the polycarbonate.Data is contained in the polycarbonate surface of a commercially produced CD-ROM disc to a depth of approximately 100 nanometers (0.001mm). To destroy the data 100% in a commercially produced disc, the grinding process needs to just penetrate the polycarbonate layer. Data is contained in the chemical layer on a recordable disc, between the polycarbonate layer and the protective surfacing on the discs. To destroy 100% of the data contained in a CD-R or CD-RW disc, the chemical surfacing above the polycarbonate needs to be removed. The grinding process of the DX-CD2 provides complete 100% destruction of the information layer of both commercially produced CD-ROM discs, and CD recordable discs.

The DX-CD2s technology physically removes the information layer from the CD-ROM permanently and safely while keeping the CD intact.

For less the $0.01 per disc, your organization can be assured that your digital information has been permanently and safely destroyed. With the looming liability forced upon us by the Economic Espionage Act, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, and HIPAA regulations, any person or company that does not properly dispose of digital records faces a major liability.
