Mühlen 25Lt-M
Micro-Cut Paper Shredder
Dual Cutting Chamber
Developed with advanced German engineering and featuring a 25-liter waste bin, the MÜHLEN 25Lt-M paper shredder has a dual-cutting system with separate cutting chambers for documents as well as CDs/DVDs and similar media.
Micro Cut | 2x15mm
With its micro-cut feature, the MÜHLEN 25Lt-M shreds paper into pieces measuring 2×15 mm (0.08×0.59 in). This cutting method reduces paper almost to dust and meets the DIN P4 secure shredding standard.
Long Operating Time
With continuous (non-stop) operation of 20–30 minutes, the MÜHLEN 25Lt-M shreds up to 12 sheets at a time. Designed for medium and large-scale intensive use, the 25Lt-M paper shredder delivers first-day performance for years without maintenance.
Safety First | Body-Heat Sensitive
Equipped with "Safe-Heat" technology, this model is designed to be sensitive to body heat. The moment a person or pet touches the machine, it automatically stops operating and warns the user via an LED light system. This eliminates the risk of injury or accidents from the outset.
5-Year Blade Warranty and Powerful Motor
Backed by a 5-year warranty, the cutting blades are made from specially hardened alloy steel and designed to provide a lifetime of service under normal use without wearing down or dulling. In addition, its powerful motor, capable of running continuously for up to 30 minutes, activates the motor protection system in case of paper jams, either releasing the jammed paper or stopping the motor entirely.
Quiet and Fast
Operating at a noise level below 55dB, this model can shred up to 12 sheets at a time without being affected by foreign objects such as staples. With a shredding speed of 250 mm per minute, it can process up to 100 documents per minute and a total of 10,000 documents per day.
Long Operating Time
Capable of running non-stop for 20 to 30 minutes, the MÜHLEN 25Lt-M paper shredder is specially designed for intensive use. Featuring micro-cut shredding, the model automatically feeds documents and stops automatically once shredding is complete. It also automatically stops operating when the waste bin is full and alerts the user via the LED light system.

Mühlen 25Lt-M — Micro-Cut Paper Shredder with Body-Heat Safety
Who Is It For?
The Mühlen 25Lt-M is a micro-cut paper shredder designed for medium and large offices with a heavy daily flow of documents. Accounting, HR, legal and other confidentiality-focused departments benefit from its 20–30 minutes of non-stop running, up to 10 hours of operation per day and a daily capacity of up to 10,000 sheets. It handles workloads at department level rather than a single desk, and its DIN P4 micro cut suits environments where shredded documents must stay private.
Key Features and What They Do
- DIN P4 micro cut (2×15 mm): Paper is reduced to small, dust-like particles, giving a high level of information security.
- Safe-Heat body-heat sensor: If a person or pet touches the machine, it stops automatically and signals the user with an LED light.
- 700 W motor, 12 sheets per pass: Up to 3,000 sheets can be shredded non-stop; when paper jams, motor protection reverses the paper or stops the motor.
- Separate blades for paper and CD/DVD: Hardened alloy-steel blades with a 5-year warranty, unaffected by staples and paper clips.
- 25 litre pull-out bin with warnings: Shredding stops when the bin is full or removed, and warning lights also flag overloading and motor heating.
- Office-friendly running: Below 55 dB, automatic feed and stop, standby mode for energy saving and 4 wheels, 2 of them braked.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many sheets can the 25Lt-M shred at once?
Up to 12 sheets per pass. If you try to feed too many, a warning light alerts you before the motor is overloaded.
Can it destroy CDs and DVDs?
Yes. The machine has separate cutting blades for paper and for CD/DVD media, so both can be destroyed with one unit.
How long can it run continuously?
It runs non-stop for 20–30 minutes and can be used for up to 10 hours in a day, after which motor protection mode helps prevent overheating.
What are its dimensions and weight?
Net dimensions are 412 x 312 x 530 mm and the net weight is 18 kg.
Usage and Care Tips
Keep within the 12-sheet limit to avoid jams, and use the manual forward and reverse buttons if a sheet needs to be freed. When motor protection mode switches on after long use, give the machine a short rest. Empty the 25 litre bin when the LED reports it is full, and let standby mode save energy between jobs. Use the braked wheels when moving it, and even with Safe-Heat in place, keep children and pets away from the working area.
