Jan 13, 2022 at 7:26 PMAt the start of the new year, the Rhenus Group has taken over the activities of Deutsche Aktenvernichtung DAV GmbH. The core business of the company, previously led by siblings Jörg Graf von Hardenberg and Marina Sachtleben, is the certified destruction of documents and data carriers. With the takeover, the previous concept and the independence of the company based in Tangstedt near Hamburg are to be maintained.
(Holzwickede/Tangstedt) For more than 28 years, DAV has specialized in the data protection-compliant destruction and archiving of documents, data carriers, and hard drives. Since 2020, Rhenus has already been active as a partner of DAV, supporting DAV in data protection-compliant services for customers.
Rhenus itself has many years of experience in the destruction of documents and data carriers. Fifteen of its own security locations in Germany offer a wide range of services; from classic data protection-compliant destruction to comprehensive disposal concepts and return logistics, Rhenus provides customers with numerous added values. “Our success is based on competent and reliable employees as well as continuous modernization with a view to the future – therefore, we are pleased about the takeover of personnel and assets of DAV to continue providing the usual high quality of service and thus justify the trust of our customers,” says Michael Wiegmann, Managing Director of the destruction specialist Rhenus Data Office.
In physical archiving, extensive document stocks are stored at several locations in Germany. This business will also be continued through Rhenus Archive Services in the group’s own security archives. “As a Europe-wide document and information logistics provider, we meet the highest data protection requirements in all document and information processes, whether in mailroom operations, digitization, automation via Robotic Process Automation, archiving, or final destruction,” says Jens Kumbrink, Managing Director of the responsible company for document and information logistics, Rhenus Office Systems. All archives are certified according to ISO 27001 for data and information security. “This way, we continue to offer our customers the best possible standard in terms of data protection.”
Focus on the Rental of Commercial Properties
Jörg Graf von Hardenberg and Marina Sachtleben want to focus more on the existing rental of commercial properties in the future. Additional properties are to be acquired in the coming years. “We have been working very intensively and well with Rhenus for several years. Therefore, the decision was not difficult for us,” says Jörg Graf von Hardenberg. Marina Sachtleben is also confident: “By handing over all activities of DAV to Rhenus, we are placing the company in experienced hands. This was very important to us to secure all jobs. Rhenus covers all services in the field of document and information management from archiving to digitization to the destruction of various types of documents.”
