Commercial Food Scales
Commercial scales play a crucial role in foodservice operations, retail settings, and logistics departments. Whether you're weighing ingredients in a prep kitchen, pricing products for sale, or preparing packages for shipment, an accurate scale ensures consistency, efficiency, and regulatory compliance. We carry a wide selection of commercial-grade scales to meet the needs of a variety of businesses and industries.
The first category we offer is trade scales, also known as legal-for-trade scales. These are certified for commercial transactions where products are sold by weight, such as in grocery stores, butcher shops, and delis. Trade scales must meet specific government accuracy standards and often come with features like price calculation displays, label printing, and programmable product codes. They're essential for maintaining customer trust and meeting legal requirements when selling by weight.
Shipping scales are designed for logistics, warehousing, and e-commerce applications. These scales are built to handle larger weights and package sizes, helping you determine shipping costs accurately. Many models can connect to computers or shipping software via USB or Bluetooth, streamlining the process of printing labels and managing outbound logistics. If you regularly send packages via Canada Post, UPS, or other carriers, a high-capacity shipping scale is a worthwhile investment.
For kitchens and food processing operations, we also carry food prep scales. These are ideal for portioning ingredients, ensuring recipe consistency, and reducing food waste. Available in mechanical and digital versions, food prep scales typically offer lower capacity ranges with high precision—perfect for weighing flour, spices, dough portions, and more. Waterproof models and those with removable platforms make cleanup easy, especially in high-volume or wet environments.
When selecting a commercial scale, be sure to consider both the weight capacity and the resolution (or smallest measurable increment). Higher capacity models are useful for bulk products and shipping needs, while low-capacity, high-resolution units offer better accuracy for precise applications. Additional features like tare functions, counting modes, and backlit displays can improve usability depending on your workflow.
