Mettler Toledo’s Good Weighing PracticeTM helps users improve control of their whole measuring process and achieve the best weighing results at the lowest costs.

With its risk-based approach, GWP® has five key steps that help users make the right decisions where it really matters, covering all important stages of the weighing process for optimum weighing results.

Evaluation - GWP® carries out a risk analysis to determine the degree of accuracy and minimum weight required for your weighing process; ielection - helps users choose the most suitable scale/balance for their application, which will help you minimise both risks and costs as well as ensure compliance; installation - ensures professional, documented installation and commissioning on site and provides

operator training; calibration - GWP® recommends the frequency of calibration and verification to ensure accurate weighing performance. The calibration certificate provides the corresponding measurement uncertainties for various process tolerances and safety factors; and routine operation - recommends the most suitable package of measures for safe operation and reliable results including test weights for

routine checks.

Good Weighing Practice™ puts the regulations applicable to the users industry into practice and represents ‘risk-free weighing’, as it guarantees the safety and quality of customer’s weighing system.
