C-Jacks and C-Legs given OIML approval for their precision and performance
After their successful launch earlier this year, our pioneering SOLAS container weighing solutions C-Jacks and C-Legs have now been given OIML approval for their precision and performance.
OIML approval is granted by the International Organisation of Legal Metrology and awarded to weighing equipment that has passed stringent testing on repeat performance and accuracy.
The products are currently the only new solutions designed specifically to meet the SOLAS requirements that are independently verified in the UK.
Stewart Campbell, Divisional Manager for Logistics, said: “As well as the possibility of fines for mis-declared verified gross mass (VGM), other risks for shippers include delays for a missed shipment (containers cannot be loaded aboard ship without an accurate VGM) and cost of having the container weighed at port. It’s therefore vitally important that the weighing equipment used to obtain a container VGM is accurate”.
