Checking the Net Contents of Packaged Goods: as Adopted by the 89th National Conference on Weights and Measures, 2004

This official handbook contains recommended inspection procedures for weights and measures officials to verify that consumer goods actually contain their labeled volume or weight. These inspection procedures assure that consumers do not pay for more product than they receive. Moreover, they prevent companies from taking unfair advantage over their competitors by shortfilling products in order to reap a greater profit.Coleman, Tom is the author of 'Checking the Net Contents of Packaged Goods: as Adopted by the 89th National Conference on Weights and Measures, 2004', published 2005 under ISBN 9780160732461 and ISBN 0160732468.
