For example, our contracts with Airports Company South Africa and SAA Cargo at Johannesburg International Airport require a one-hour response time.

SABS Accreditation and Quality System We are accredited on the SABS 0259:1990 quality system allowing us to verify trade use scales.

Our verification officers are fully qualified to handle almost all types of scales, both mechanical and electronic. Progressive Transformation Policies We are the forefront of the trend toward transformation in small, medium and micro enterprises. After lengthy negotiations, we have recently restructured with the retention of a female interest and in incorporation of two black directors, highly experienced scale persons, onto our Board and into our company. Our skills upgrading programme for staff members continues to reap rewards.
