Weighing solutions play a crucial role in various processes within the industry, such as extraction, loading, processing, transportation and distribution of materials.

JWS offers a range of weighing solutions, including weighbridges, onboard weighing systems, platform scales, and weighbridge software.

The bespoke weighing solutions will integrate into the quarry’s operational process to ensure accurate measurement of quality and quantity of aggregate.

JWS was instrumental in the drawing up of the Code of Practice for Batch Weighing Machines used in plants for cement and cement bound materials. As such, JWS’s expertise is well know when it comes to the calibration of process weighers for Asphalt and Ready Mixed Concrete

Waste & Recycling

Central to the Waste & Recycling industry is the measurement of weight as both the buying and selling of recycled materials are based on the collected items’ weight. JWS has an in-depth understanding of the industry, with clients ranging from local councils to private contractors, and understand the need for weighing solutions capable of reliable and repeatable weighing. JWS can offer bespoke solutions depending on the operational and business requirements.

Product offerings include: Indicators, Bench Scales, Belt Scales, Axle Weighing, Weighbridges, and Weighing Software 

Construction

The construction industry is a dynamic operational environment. It is essential that the weighing solutions used within this space not only maintain performance and efficiency but can increase them too.

JWS recognises the importance of weighing equipment that withstands the harsh environmental conditions of the industry and offers a range of services to ensure that accuracy is maintained.

Weighing solutions must meet the required inputs, finished goods, and waste to maximise investment and minimise wastage. These include; weighbridges, weighbridge software onboard weighing systems and platform scales.   

Retail

Having accurate weighing data at your fingertips can make the difference between profit or loss for those in the retail sector.  Products priced according to weight ensure that the consumer is protected – they are paying for what they get, and the retailer is getting a fair price.
