Recycling & Waste Management

Overview

Weight data plays a crucial role in all waste management or recycling industries. From tracking the amount of waste collected, to monitoring inputs and outputs during materials recovery, through to extracting energy and disposing of waste, weight information is key to legislative compliance and operational efficiency.

Weighing scales and systems from Avery Weigh-Tronix provide this vital information every step of the way without slowing down your operation. Our scales help you to comply with health, safety and environmental regulations, allowing you to get on with business.

For most waste management operations, weighbridges are an ideal solution for weighing and monitoring loads coming into and out of a site. Paired with traffic management systems – including barriers, traffic lights, and cameras – weighbridge systems can help to control traffic flow, prevent accidents, and monitor and record incoming and outgoing loads effectively. For sites where 24-hour operations are critical, unmanned weighbridge systems can allow the flexibility of additional operating hours without additional human resources.

Waste processing facilities must comply with a range of legislation aimed at ensuring environmental protection, human health, and efficient resource use. Weighing and traceability of waste plays an important role in meetings these standards. 

When downtime is not an option, Avery Weigh-Tronix scales are the perfect solution. Reliability is key when dealing with large quantities of waste materials. We build our floor, bench, and vehicle scales to withstand daily use in bulk ingredient handling applications.
