FAQS about our retail weighing scales

What are my legal obligations as an Australian food retailer?

You must comply with all relevant trade measurement legislation if you sell goods by weight.

Any retail scales or measuring instruments used to sell goods by weight must be verified by before use. Wedderburn is a National Measurement Institute (NMI) Authorised Service Licence Holder for the verification of trade approved weighing equipment. Our qualified Service technicians can verify compliant retail scales, and supply a Notification of Verification Certificate.

In addition you must ensure your equipment is used correctly by staff, clean and in good working order. If the goods aren’t prepacked, you must also ensure the scales are positioned so the customer can see the weighing process.  For full details of trade measurement requirements for your retail weighing scales, please contact your local Wedderburn branch or visit the NMI website.
