ABW is taking a significant step in optimizing its range of floor scales. From now on, only galvanized models will be offered, marking the end of painted steel versions. Thanks to economies of scale and synergy benefits, ABW no longer applies price differentiation—allowing customers to fully benefit from these advancements.

Why choose a galvanized floor scale?

The decision to switch to galvanized floor scales is primarily driven by durability. Galvanization is a process in which steel is immersed in a zinc bath. This results in a strong, corrosion-resistant zinc coating that effectively and sustainably protects the underlying metal from rust and wear. This is a key advantage over painted steel versions, where the paint layer can peel off, exposing the steel surface to corrosion.

Benefits of galvanized floor scales

  • Superior corrosion protection – Galvanized steel is highly resistant to corrosion, ensuring a longer lifespan for the scale.
  • Hygienic & safe – Ideal for applications in the food industry, where contact with moisture is common and rust or peeling paint is unacceptable for food safety.
  • Low maintenance – Reduced risk of damage and wear results in lower maintenance needs, making it a more sustainable investment.
  • Aesthetic appeal – A galvanized floor scale maintains its condition longer, preserving its professional appearance with regular use.
