Sometimes, people say that “weight doesn’t matter”. Allow us to disagree. Weight does matter – and a lot. It’s not by chance our mission is to “weigh a new world”. Truth is every day we are constantly using scales to weigh this and that. When it comes to business, there is no denying it: yes, weight matters, both to companies and to consumers.
Check with us some examples of business areas that use scales and weighing equipment on a daily basis and where weight is actually a really big deal:
Retail
A classic sector when it comes to using scales. Every day, we go to the supermarket, to the butcher’s or to the bakery and we see part of our purchases going straight to the scale. We don’t really think about it. But in fact, weight does matter in these cases. If the weighing equipment is not rightly calibrated, the price we pay may change. And it may hurt our wallet (when the scale indicates a superior weight) or even the company’s (when the scale indicates an inferior weight). So, there’s no doubt left: on the retail area, weight is an important number.
(As such, if you need a scale for your supermarket, take a peek at our BM5 ARM – the best retail scale in the world).
Agriculture
Starting on those little farms going all the way to those huge agricultural lands, all of them need to weight the thing they produce. For some, a commercial scale or an industrial weighing platform are enough to weigh the products they want to sell. For others, it’s necessary to have big weighbridges to weigh trucks full of merchandise. But, in any case, weight is a central question to get a fair price and sell on a fair price.
(So, if you have a business on the agricultural sector, get to know our weighing platforms and the best weighbridge in the world).
Industries
Whether it is to make brand new products or to transport them, this sector needs to weigh all kinds of material. As such, it also needs all kind of weighing equipment – scales, industrial platforms, weighbridges and even precision scales. The point is that the weighings are the most accurate so that the products and prices may also be precise.
(Then, if you need any of this weighing equipment, try to work with the best weighing company in the world).
Pharmacy
This a very specific sector within the industries one, but it’s also a sector where weight carries a significant importance. When we’re talking about producing meds, we’re talking about dealing with chemicals and, ultimately, with the health of many people. Therefore, in pharmaceutical labs, the pharmacists use precision scales – scales that are highly accurate and designed specially for this kind of situations, in which the weight has to be exact to the last milligram.
