SET Weighing

Simple, Efficient Container Weighing In Any Location

For shippers, forwarders and their logistics partners, new SOLAS VGM rules pose a serious compliance challenge. Incorrect weights and delayed container movements are a real risk to your shipping operation.

These challenges are aggravated by a lack of useful tools for weighing containers outside of terminals and weigh stations.

BISON container Scales solves these problem by enabling accurate container weight verification in any location.

With BISON Container Scales you can weigh containers on-site, simply and efficiently, and get the VGM to the shipping line at the earliest opportunity.

BISON Container Scales eliminate the need to weigh all cargo items; a process that can be inefficient and risks calculation errors. Now you don't need heavy, expensive handling equipment to weigh the container. And you can avoid the cost and delays that come with running containers to offsite weigh stations.

With BISON COntainer Scales, accuracy is assured through a combination of OIML certified load cells, electronic tilt compensation and the BISON App, which calculates the container weight for you. No manual keying of weights is required.

With the BISON App you can also verify the load distribution, capture photos, record other shipment details and send a signed VGM certificate direct from the weigh location.

Use BISON Container Scales to manage SOLAS VGM compliance, check the load distribution, avoid overloading and optimize container loads.

For weighing grounded containers

BISON C-Jacks are robust industrial scales for weighing grounded shipping containers of all types and sizes, up to 35,000kg.

To get an accurate VGM, simply attach the four scales to each corner, jack the container off the ground; then transmit the weight and load distribution direct to the BISON App. It takes less than five minutes for one person to attach, weigh and pack the scales away.

Portable, accurate and easy to use, BISON C-Jacks are ideal for remote logistics operations and sites handling low-to-medium container volumes at ground level.
