What Is the Process of Making Bottled Water?

Bottled Water Production

To make bottled water, you need to filter and purify high-quality sourced water and package it in clean, safe containers. The water goes through processes like reverse osmosis, distillation, or ultraviolet treatment to remove contaminants and impurities to ensure it is clean, safe, and meets standards. The water source can be spring, purified, or artesian water. Bottles are made with food-grade materials to ensure safety and quality. Minerals like magnesium, calcium, potassium are added to improve quality and health benefits.

The main source of bottled water is public tap water treated to remove contaminants and improve taste. In the U.S., bottled water is regulated as a food by the FDA to meet quality and labeling standards. With an International Bottled Water Association certification, additional inspections ensure stricter industry standards are met. Depending on the source, water may be filtered or treated with ozone to remove odors and tastes before bottling.

PET Plastic Production

PET plastic is made from petroleum hydrocarbons through a reaction between ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid. The PET is polymerized into long molecular chains for bottle production. During polymerization, impurities like diethylene glycol and acetaldehyde are commonly produced.

How is bottled water made step by step?

Bottled water goes through processes to ensure it is clean, safe, and meets standards.

Blow molding and extending blow molding machines play a key role in bottle production. The molds are made using CNC machine tools.
