Garner Products HDD Erasure and Destruction Equipment With ETL Certification

Garner Products, Inc. leads the data destruction industry in product safety by being the only US HDD degausser and destroyer manufacturer to obtain certification of its products to UL, IEC and CSA safety standards from a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL).

In addition, its products are independently tested for conformity to CE standards for safety and emissions for EU.

The ETL Listed Mark affixed to the firm’s products is issued by Electrical Testing Laboratories (ETL), a NRTL, and indicates compliance with UL, IEC and CSA safety standards. Electrical Testing Labs is a long-established and widely recognized NRTL and was founded by Thomas Edison in 1896. To ensure continued compliance, ETL performs unannounced quarterly inspections of the company’s manufacturing process.

“The ETL certification underscores Garner Products’ commitment to safety in the design and manufacturing quality that goes into every product,” said Ron Stofan, president. “Our customers can be assured that Garner’s degaussers and destroyers meet the stringent safety guidelines required by data centers, hospitals, and other sensitive work environments around the world.“

The company’s degaussers sanitize HDDs and tape of all data in second. The firm’s destroyers pierce the data chips in SSDs, as well as bending, breaking an mangling HDDs. The company‘s IRONCLAD data destruction verification system with JPEG image capture, documents the data santization process with time, date, operator ID, erasure diagnostics and media photos to properly document the chain-of-custody of the the HDD decommissioning process. Garner Products are made in the USA.
