Alu-Schlitzbox

German to English Tech/Engineering Business/Commerce (general)
Entsorgung von Unterlagen und Datentraegern

Die Entsorgung von Unterlagen und Datentraegern der Schutzklasse "vertraulich" hat primaer vor Ort durch Aktenvernichter (Schredder) oder sekundaer durch Nutzung der Alu-Schlitzboxen zu erfolgen. Fuer eine Aktenvernichtung sind Geraete der DIN-Stufe 3 oder hoeher nach DIN 32757 zu nutzen.

Does anybody know what "Alu-Schlitzboxen" are?
Any ideas?

TIA

Information

There's a nice picture of one at https://www.cbis.realestate.siemens.com/PMA/intranet/inc_kal... (if you pass the mouse over the "Schlitzbox" line)

It's basically a metal container with a slit in the top in which you can place confidential documents - the container is then taken away by a waste disposal company so that the contents can be appropriately disposed of.

Translation will depend a lot on who your audience is - whether they understand this system or whether you need to explain it ("containers provided by a specialist disposal company" or something)
