Baykon Industrial Weighing Systems

What Baykon Industrial Weighing Systems does

Baykon Industrial Weighing Systems is a privately held Turkish manufacturer of industrial electronic weighing equipment, founded in 1987 in Istanbul and currently employing approximately 107 people. The company designs, produces, and distributes a broad portfolio that spans load cells, weighing electronics, platform and bench scales, laboratory balances, automatic checkweighers, ex-proof instruments for hazardous areas, logistics weighing solutions, and accompanying software and service offerings. The technology platform rests on five successive generations of proprietary electronic weighing design, with products integrating into customer ERP systems and PLC/SCADA production lines for process and checkweighing applications. An IoT Option Board introduced in 2021 adds remote monitoring and data-capture functionality to the instrument base.

The company operates a wholly-owned German subsidiary, Baykon GmbH Deutschland, and maintains a dealer network spanning five continents. Revenue is generated through direct equipment sales, project-based industrial installations, and aftermarket services and software, with a customer base that includes multinationals (Henkel, AkzoNobel, Marshall) and large Turkish corporates across chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food, logistics, building materials, and personal care. On September 1, 2025, Baykon announced a strategic partnership with Minebea Intec, a global weighing-technology leader, which materially extends its international channel and product reach. The company holds multiple international metrology and quality certifications (ISO 9001, NAWI, METAS EU Verification, OIML MID R.61, TÜRKAK) and operates an officially approved Turkish R&D Center (2018). No public funding rounds or revenue figures have been disclosed.
