What’s in the water?
Not all waters are equal, yet most people seem to believe if it comes in a bottle it must be good. We urge you to read this section to understand a little more about minerals in water and what some of the different minerals are. In this way, you will discover what the characteristics of different mineral waters are and which of these characteristics appeal to your taste buds. You might also discover there are certain waters you would prefer not to drink.
AQUAPAX pure still mineral water is naturally low in minerals, has a near perfect pH balance, and is virtually nitrate free. This makes AQUAPAX suitable for infant consumption as well as suitable for anyone on a low sodium or nitrate sensitive diet.
Natural Mineral Water: (NMW) is water originating from an underground water table or deposit, which is bottled / packed at source, and is microbiologically wholesome and naturally free from pollution and harmful micro-organisms. It is characterised by a stable composition (minerals, trace elements etc.) which is preserved intact by the extraction and bottling methods. NMW in its state at source may not be the subject of any addition other than the introduction or reintroduction of carbon dioxide under certain conditions.
Spring Water: is water originating from an underground water table or deposit, which is also bottled at source. It should be microbiologically wholesome and naturally free from pollution and harmful micro-organisms, however, it does not need to demonstrate a stable composition.
Bottled Drinking Water: is any bottled drinking water which is neither spring water nor natural mineral water. It can come from a variety of sources, including municipal (tap) sources. Unlike natural mineral water and spring water, bottled drinking water can be treated without restriction providing it does not make the water unsafe.
So why did we choose cartons?
Cartons are extremely resource efficient. The unique make up of the package, means that it not only protects the contents from light and air, which can harm any valuable vitamins and minerals in the product; it uses the minimum amount of materials to make the package. It manages to do all this, without the need for preservatives.
Cartons are very transport efficient!
Comparing both sides of the value chain, the carton packaging material is delivered to the filling sites in ‘reel’ format, so just one truck can transport enough packaging material for nearly a million 1 litre water cartons. If you think of the alternative, it takes over 50 trucks to deliver a million formed plastic or glass bottles of the same size to a bottling plant. Please hold that thought in your mind for a moment to let it sink in, then you can tell others why we are urging you to ‘think inside the box’ ®.
Cartons are recyclable!
So what, so are plastic bottles… yes, and we encourage their recycling, however, cartons are mostly made from renewable resources (forests) in the first place, which in our book counts as a big plus.Cartons are collected for recycling across many parts of the UK and Tetra Pak are working hard to actively drive the availability of carton collection systems across the nation. Watch this space and keep an eye on the press for more details as this area is developing rapidly.
To find out more about carton recycling, where cartons are collected or how you can recycle your Just Drinking Water cartons, please visit: - www.tetrapakrecycling.co.uk and look at 'Carton recycling for consumers'. If your council does not have a carton recycling process in place yet, you can help change the status quo by dropping them a line to ask when they plan to start one.
