Container Weighing Solutions

Weighing containers allows you to maximise use of the load space, increasing revenue and value of shipping costs and saves the time that would be require to weigh individual items of cargo. In turn, this takes the guess work out of container packing and avoids overloading, ensuring compliance with the latest container weight legislation. Container weighing can be done using several types of weighing equipment, including scales, weighbridges or lifting equipment that incorporate scales that are all capable of determining the exact weights of a packed container. Technologies incorporated into modern scales provide an accurate reading of weight, and can even automatically transmit this to apps that can be used to create shipping documents that comply with SOLAS legislation. Container weighing equipment is used in shipyards and docks, at weighbridges and also at manufacturing and industrial sites where containers are packed ready for transport and shipping.
