Accurate weighing is essential in every industry, from retail to research. Over time, even the most advanced weighing scales lose precision due to wear, environmental changes, or daily use. This is why regular calibration is not just recommended, it is a legal and operational necessity.
Calibration ensures that your weighing scale provides correct measurements by comparing it with a known standard. An uncalibrated scale can lead to inaccurate readings, which can cost your business time, money, and compliance.
In South Africa, trade-approved scales used for commercial purposes must be verified and calibrated according to the Legal Metrology Act. Using non-compliant equipment can result in penalties, disputes, or reputational damage.
