What Balanças Jundiaí Industria e Comercio does

Balanças Jundiaí Industria e Comercio is a Brazilian manufacturer of industrial and commercial weighing equipment, founded in 1951 and headquartered in Várzea Paulista, São Paulo. The company designs, manufactures, sells, and services a broad portfolio of scales and weighing systems — including roadway truck scales, railway and road-rail scales, platform scales, flow scales, suspended crane scales, big bag and drum filling systems, and grain bagging systems — together with the underlying load cell technology (single-point, shear beam, dual shear beam, tension/compression, including IP68 stainless-steel road scale cells) and digital weight indicators. The BJ-800 indicator/transmitter is the proprietary centerpiece, embedding operational sequences for filling, level control, and silo/hopper management, and connecting to printers, PLCs, supervisory systems, and the company's weighing management software that automates gate control, traffic lights, cameras, barcode readers, and RFID transponders for unattended vehicle weighing. The company serves agribusiness, mining and metallurgy, logistics and transportation, cold storage and meat processing, chemical, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and food industries across Brazil.

Balanças Jundiaí operates a sales-led go-to-market with direct sales from headquarters supported by a national network of resident technicians and authorized technical representatives for installation, preventive maintenance contracts, repair, and CGCRE-traceable calibration services. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time equipment sales (hardware, systems, and software) and recurring professional services including calibration, certification, and maintenance contracts. Pricing is quote-based with no public price list; product and service quotations are tailored to capacity, installation complexity, and service scope. The company holds CGCRE (Rede Brasileira de Calibração) accreditation and complies with INMETRO and IPEM metrology regulations, which is a structural requirement for serving regulated commercial weighing customers in Brazil. Ownership is private, with no disclosed investors, subsidiaries, or parent entities, and no public listing.

Core offering

Balanças Jundiaí manufactures and sells industrial weighing equipment including truck scales, railway scales, platform scales, flow scales, crane scales, big bag filling systems, and drum filling systems for sectors such as agribusiness, mining, logistics, metallurgy, cold storage, ports, food, and chemicals. The company also provides proprietary weighing management software, the BJ-800 indicator/transmitter, load cells, and supporting services including CGCRE-traceable calibration, preventive maintenance, and nationwide technical assistance.

Product overview

Balanças Jundiaí is a Brazilian scale manufacturer founded in 1951, operating as both a hardware manufacturer and service provider in the weighing industry. Its product portfolio centers on industrial and commercial weighing equipment and systems, supported by calibration, maintenance, and technical assistance services nationwide. The core product lines include: (1) Heavy-capacity weighing scales — railway, road-rail, truck, and road scales ranging from 9m to 60m platforms with 30t to 160t capacities; (2) Industrial weighing systems — platform scales (bench and floor, Line 6000), crane scales with LED display up to 20m, and flow scales (batch and continuous) for agroindustrial applications; (3) Process automation and weighing management — the Sistema gerenciador de pesagem, Programa para gerenciamento de portaria, and road scale automation integrating gates, traffic lights, cameras, barcode readers, and transponders; (4) Embedded weighing systems — BJ-800 indicator/transmitter with built-in sequences for big bag filling, drum filling, and silo level control; (5) Packaging and bagging systems — big bag filling (20-40 bags/hour at 0.1% accuracy), automatic bagging for grains, and drum filling for liquids; (6) Component products — load cells (Single-Point, Shear Beam, Dual Shear Beam, Tension/Compression) including IP68 stainless steel road scale models, and digital weight indicators; (7) Calibration and technical services — scale calibration traceable to CGCRE/RBC, preventive maintenance contracts, and nationwide technical assistance. The product ecosystem is interconnected: load cells feed into indicators/transmitters (BJ-800), which enable the embedded weighing and management software, which in turn connect with access control and automation peripherals (gates, cameras, barcode readers, transponders).
