Every Gram Counts. Every Dirham Depends on It.
In the gold and precious metals business — whether you are a jeweler in Dubai’s Gold Souk, a bullion trader in Abu Dhabi, a gold refinery in Jeddah, or a silver and platinum dealer in Riyadh — there is one instrument at the center of every transaction: a precision weighing scale.
The wrong scale — one that reads inaccurately, drifts out of calibration, lacks the weighing units your business requires, or cannot produce a legal-for-trade certified measurement — is a liability. The right scale is one of the most important investments a precious metals business makes. Telos Instruments is the official Adam Equipment distributor and jewelry testing instrument supplier in Saudi Arabia and UAE, bringing world-class precision balances to GCC precious metals businesses.

🇦🇪 UAE — Precision Weighing for the World’s Second-Largest Gold Hub
The UAE is now the world’s second-largest gold trading hub with US$120B+ in annual gold flows. Commercial weighing in the UAE falls under ESMA oversight, requiring legal-for-trade certified balances for any transaction where weight determines price. Telos Instruments supplies the Highland Approved and full Adam Equipment range to Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and all UAE cities with AED invoicing and local warranty support.
🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia — SASO Compliance and Certified Weighing
In Saudi Arabia, commercial weighing is regulated by SASO (Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization). Scales used in gold and jewelry transactions must meet certification standards. Telos Instruments delivers the Highland precision balance and complete Adam Equipment range to Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, Makkah, Madinah, and Khobar with in-country support and Arabic-language assistance.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Highland precision balance and why is it recommended for jewelry businesses in Saudi Arabia?
The Adam Equipment Highland precision balance is a portable, battery-powered precision balance with built-in HandiCal internal calibration and ShockProtect overload protection. It is available in both a standard version and an Approved version (NTEP and EC type certified for legal-for-trade use). The Highland is the most requested model among jewelry businesses and gold traders across Saudi Arabia and the UAE because it combines genuine portability, self-calibration capability, and support for all precious metals weighing units — carats, troy ounces, pennyweight, grams, and more.
Is Telos Instruments a jewelry testing instrument supplier in Saudi Arabia?
Yes. Telos Instruments is a dedicated jewelry testing instrument supplier in Saudi Arabia and the UAE, supplying Adam Equipment precision balances, Terra Scientific XRF gold analyzers, and GemOro AuRACLE PRO karat testers to gold traders, jewelers, bullion dealers, and refineries across Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, and the wider GCC region.
Which Adam Equipment balance is best for weighing gold in carats and troy ounces?
The Luna, Equinox, Solis, and Polaris all support carats (ct), troy ounces (ozt), and pennyweight (dwt) as standard weighing units alongside grams. For legal-for-trade commercial weighing in these units, the Highland Approved is the certified choice — and the most popular model supplied by Telos Instruments to jewelry businesses across Saudi Arabia.
Does Telos Instruments deliver Adam Equipment balances to Saudi Arabia?
Yes. Telos Instruments delivers the Highland precision balance and the complete Adam Equipment range to Saudi Arabia — including Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, and all major Saudi cities — as well as across the UAE and GCC. Contact us for delivery timelines and pricing specific to your location.
Do I need a legal-for-trade certified balance for my jewelry shop in Dubai or Riyadh?
If your scale is used directly in commercial transactions where weight determines price — for example, buying or selling gold by weight — ESMA in the UAE and SASO in Saudi Arabia require a legally certified instrument. Telos Instruments can advise on your specific compliance requirements and supply the Highland Approved precision balance, which carries the relevant certifications for both markets.
