Food & Beverage Manufacturing Scales
Food and beverage manufacturing runs on precision. Whether you're batching ingredients, portioning product, or filling containers, even small weighing errors can throw off recipes, blow out ingredient costs, or put compliance at risk. On top of accuracy, your equipment also has to survive constant washdowns, humidity, and strict hygiene standards.
Meltrons supplies weighing equipment designed specifically for food-grade environments accurate, corrosion-resistant, and built to meet the hygiene demands of modern food production.

Stainless Steel Load Cells for Food Production
Standard load cells can corrode or harbour contamination risk in food environments. Our stainless steel load cells are built to withstand frequent washdowns, high humidity, and chemical cleaning agents while maintaining accurate, repeatable readings critical for batching, mixing, and filling processes.

Weighing Solutions for Every Stage of Production
From the kitchen counter to the silo and the production line, find equipment that fits your process.
Bakery & Restaurant Scales
For bakeries, commercial kitchens, and food prep environments, accuracy in small quantities matters just as much as it does on the production line. Our bakery/restaurant scales are built for daily use in busy kitchens, giving consistent measurements for ingredients and portions.
Butcher Scales & Label Printing
Meat and deli operations need scales that weigh product accurately and print compliant, trade-approved labels at the point of sale. Our butcher scales & label printing scales handle both in one unit, speeding up service while keeping pricing accurate and auditable.
Bulk Ingredient & Silo Weighing
Manufacturers storing bulk ingredients flour, sugar, grain, liquids in silos or hoppers need real-time visibility into stock levels to avoid production delays or overfills. Our silo weighing kits give you that visibility; see our guide on silo load cell installation, calibration, and maintenance for what's involved in setting one up.
Precision Balances for Quality Control & R&D
Recipe development and quality control testing require finer accuracy than production-floor scales typically offer. Our MPB Precision Balance Scale is suited to lab and QC environments where small measurement differences matter.
Custom Weighing Systems for Production Lines

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do food manufacturers need stainless steel load cells specifically?
Standard load cells can corrode or trap contaminants when exposed to washdowns and cleaning chemicals. Stainless steel construction resists this, keeping your equipment hygienic and accurate over time.
Do I need trade-approved scales for food packaging?
If product weight appears on packaging or determines pricing, you generally need NMI-certified, trade-approved equipment. Our team can point you to compliant options.
Can Meltrons supply scales that survive daily washdown cleaning?
Yes, our stainless steel and food-grade equipment is specifically built to handle frequent washdowns and chemical cleaners without degrading accuracy.
