A little about Fairbanks Scales

Fairbanks has been a leader in weighing equipment and scale technology since 1830. Though many things have changed since then, we still lead the industry with the most reliable and accurate mission-critical weighing equipment. Whether you're weighing 2 pounds or 150,000, our scales are the best way to obtain the best _weigh_ . The scale itself is only half the story - without proper service and calibration, no scale will provide the accuracy necessary to prevent financial loss. Our nationwide network of trained technicians stands ready to ensure your equipment is in peak condition whenever and wherever that may be.

Your role as a Benefits Specialist
