Measuring ingredients for formulations: gravimetry vs. volumetry.

I need to design and commission a system to feed ingredients to a mixer. The ingredients are selected surfactants in liquid form and water in amounts from 50 to 800 kg.

What do my fellow engineers think is the best method?
To usse intermediate containers, pumps and a balance with 1000 kg capacity; or a pump and a volume counter, transferring directly from storage containers to mixer?
