Weight and Scale Regulations

Weight and scale regulations refer to the laws and guidelines governing how weights and measuring devices are designed, calibrated, and used to ensure fairness and accuracy in commerce and trade. These regulations ensure that products are sold by accurate weight (like food or bulk goods). They help prevent fraud, protect consumers, and maintain standardization across various industries. In practice, this means scales must be regularly tested and certified to confirm they provide precise measurements, ensuring everyone from consumers to businesses can trust what they pay for is correct.
