bagged up/packed at the weights specified/requested by customers
Explanation:
Although it means bagged up in hundredweights (as shown in the following reference, which you've probably already seen) the term here seems to be according to their internal definition.


Que significa AQUINTALADO
Los granos se pueden comercializar a granel; cribado y aquintalado; o ya envasado para venta al menudeo. "aquintalado" significa "embolsado en quintales", donde un quintal es una bolsa de aprox. 45 kg (100 libras) o 50 kg ("quintal métrico"). ggenellina ¿comentarios? 21:30 8 oct 2010 (UTC)

Consists in weighing the container and filling it at the weight specified/requested by the CUSTOMER

or

Consists in weighing the container and filling it at/within the weight range specified/requested by the CUSTOMER.

I suggest this second option, in case the customer actually does specify a "range". i.e. fill it up between 50 and 60 pounds, although it seems unlikely

  -> Thanks, Gruia

agree  Charles Davis: A quintal is a US (short) cwt, but is less than a UK (long) cwt, and a quintal métrico is 100 kg, not 50, acc. to RAE. But pedantry aside, you're obviously right in this context anyway.
