HOW WE PURIFY
OUR WATER

Town water is chlorinated and filtered through micro filters and activated carbon filters in order to remove impurities and off flavours. Following filtration, the water undergoes two consecutive treatments on separate reverse osmosis plants to produce very pure water. Bicarbonates are dosed in controlled amounts into the water stream to provide the correct balance of minerals. Prior to packaging, the water is ozonised to ensure that the product remains free from microbiological contamination.
