Border Scales

We trace our roots back to 1990 when Scaletronic Enterprises was established in East London, Eastern Cape. The company had tremendous growth over this period and eventually merged with another local scale company and the decision was taken to rename this merger and to form a new entity namely Border Scales cc which was formally registered in 1996. Border Scales cc was named for the geographical area we operate in, the Border region of the Eastern Cape and former Transkei State. Our philosophy has always been to place quality and service at the forefront of all our dealings and to consider our clients satisfaction and recommendation as invaluable to our business growth. Although we still focus on servicing the Border and Eastern Cape region, we will gladly ship equipment to any region in South Africa.
