F.A.Q.

How much money do l need to start a water bottling business?
We offer turnkey solutions based on a clients budget, however small the budget may be we will recommend a system to fit that without compromising the quality of your end product.
Are you a franchise?
No we are not, our clients are 100% in control of their business and they do not pay royalty fees.
I am outside of Gauteng, can you assist me?
Yes we travel all over South Africa and beyond borders . We even have clients in Botswana, Swaziland, Zimbabwe, Lesotho, Malawi, DRC , to mention a few.
When should the water be tested?

If there are any problem signs that may be related to water quality issues, have the water tested immediately. Problem signs are most often found in the operation of boilers and cooling towers and may take any of the following forms:

  • Higher energy costs
  • Frequent replacement of parts
  • Significant down time
  • Scale buildup on spray nozzles
  • High maintenance costs

Even if no visible problems exist, regular sampling is recommended. The frequency of testing is influenced by the source of water being delivered. In regions where the source water quality does not vary, modifications at the municipal plant or in the distribution system may affect the quality being delivered. In these cases, testing once per year is recommended.

How do I find out my water quality?
Take a sample of your raw water source to an accredited laboratory. We can recommend the labs we use
What should be tested for in the water?

The scope of this analysis will greatly depend on the intended use for the water . If water is used as a raw material for production, regulations or internal engineering provides the quality and testing requirements. If the water is to be used in the fmcg industry, the following list of parameters should be analyzed.

  • TDS (total dissolved solids)
  • TSS (total suspended solids)
  • Hardness
  • Chlorine
  • Alkalinity
  • Silica
  • Iron
  • Chlorides
  • pH
  • Bacteria
What water treatment technology is best?

There are no “best” technologies. Each is used to address a specific type of water contaminant. In many scenarios, multiple technologies are required to provide the best solutions. Common water treatment technologies include:

  • Filtration, for the reduction of suspended solids, removal of some bacteria and iron, and absorption of chlorine.
  • Softening, for the removal of hardness and dissolved iron.
  • Reverse Osmosis, for the reduction of TDS, chlorides, silica, and sub-micron suspended solids reverse osmosis units can be used to treat boiler makeup water.
  • Deionization, for the reduction of TDS, silica, and chlorides.
  • Chemical Treatment, for the adjustment of pH, alkalinity, and destruction of bacteria.
  • Ozone, for the destruction of bacteria.
  • UV, for the destruction of bacteria.
When should the water be treated?
Water treatment depends on the application. Each use for water generates a minimum requirement. If the supply water does not meet process specifications, treatment is definitely required. Even if the water quality meets requirements, there may be cost saving opportunities based on additional treatment. By improving water quality, the maintenance of various machines can be minimized. This cost
reduction can be substantial and justify additional treatment.
Should treatment equipment be centralized?
If treated water is required for all operations, then a centralized system is recommended. For higher purity water there many be problems with a centralized system. Depending upon the type and length of distribution path, problems may occur in maintaining quality to the delivery points. However, if there are multiple applications, each requiring different treatment methods, these systems should be reviewed and sized individually.
