Bottled water production business. Own business: production of drinking water

In this article:

As you know, the water supplied by the centralized water supply in most cities is not suitable for drinking or cooking. In this regard, many people install water treatment systems at the point of consumption of water in private houses and apartments, or buy the required amount of treated water.

Most people prefer to buy drinking water in special containers..

As a result, the high demand for the natural resource generates supply, and many entrepreneurs decide to start their own water production business.

Regional structure of production

In the Russian Federation, the consumption of bottled water is growing rapidly every year, on average, demand increases by 15-16% annually. The main suppliers of the natural resource have won 37% of the sales market.

Leading enterprises in the drinking water market are located in the following regions:

• Karachay-Cherkess Republic;
• In the Stavropol Territory;
• Novosibirsk region;
• Lipetsk region;
• Moscow region.

The figure below shows the largest regions in Russia for the production of drinking water.

As a result, there is tough competition in the above regions, and in order to win a niche in the market it is necessary to create a product with competitive advantages.

Basic requirements for the quality of drinking water and production activities

In order to carry out the production of clean water, you must familiarize yourself with the following legislative acts:

• The Tax Code of the Russian Federation;
• RF Law of 21.02.1992 N2395-1 "On Subsoil";
• Federal Law of 23.11.1995 N174-F3 "On Environmental Expertise";
• Resolution of the RF Armed Forces of 15.07.1992 N3314-1;
• Sanitary and Epidemiological Rules and Regulations 2.1.4.1116-02.

Before starting production activities, it is necessary to obtain permits:

• Sanitary and epidemiological conclusion for drilling a well in a certain area from the local government;
• Decree from the local administration "On permission to design a water bottling plant";
• A corresponding license for the right to use land for the extraction of groundwater.

Features of drinking water production

Leading suppliers use two types of natural resource to produce drinking water:

• Natural water obtained from environmentally friendly sources;
• Natural water purified using special equipment or water treatment systems.

The general scheme of drinking water production is shown in the figure.

The production of water purified in the water treatment system includes the following stages of the technological process:

1. Extraction of water from a well, which is carried out using a special submersible pump and an underground pipeline. Thanks to special equipment, water is supplied to the water treatment section in a special large-volume tank.

2. Water purification is carried out in several stages:

• rough mechanical cleaning -allows you to remove large mechanical impurities from the water with a size of about 400 microns;
• fine water purification- clears the natural resource from suspended impurities with a size of at least 1 micron;
• disinfection of water modern methods - can be carried out using ultraviolet radiation, chlorination or ozonation.

After monitoring the chemical composition of water, the natural resource enters the tanks made of stainless steel. The storage tanks ensure continuous production of drinking water.

3. Drinking water filling - carried out on a specialized line, where the natural resource is supplied in separate containers of the required volume. As a rule, in factories, water is bottled on an automatic machine, without the participation of people.

4. Water containers are sealed and sent to the finished product warehouse... In order to protect products from counterfeiting and mark the type of water, leading manufacturers wear shrink caps of different colors on containers.

Drinking water production technology

Ozonation technology is used practically at all leading enterprises that produce drinking water.

The technology allows for the disinfection and enrichment of drinking water with oxygen. Ozonation of water is carried out before bottling and bottling of a natural resource. Such purified water of a certain chemical composition and enriched with oxygen has a beneficial effect on the human body and is widely used for medical and preventive purposes.

The main advantage of the technology ispreservative effect allowing water to retain its beneficial properties and original composition for a long time.

To use the technology in the production process, it is necessary to purchase special equipment:

• Ozone generator;
• Duplex automatic air dryer;
• Thermocatalytic ozone destructor;
• Injection pump;
• Injector, valves, fittings;
• Automatic start, level sensors;
• ORP controller with ORP sensor.

Ozonation technology allows factories to eliminate the chlorination of water during the process.

Necessary equipment for the production of drinking water

In order to organize the production of drinking water, it is necessary to purchase the following equipment:

• Borehole pump;
• Coarse filter;
• Fine filter;
• Blow molding equipment;
• For ozonation of water, ozonation units or a set of the above equipment are purchased;
• Sterile water tanks;
• Filling machine;
• Semi-automatic bottle capping machine;
• Labeling machine.

There is also an automated line for the production of clean water, which consists of the following units:

• Block of deep cleaning, disinfection of natural resources;
• Water softening unit;
• Saturation block;
• Filling unit for bottles, cans, siphons.

The figure below shows a monoblock for bottling drinking water from an automated line. On it, water is poured into bottles and a label is glued, and a mug is also twisted.

Drinking water production business plan

In this case, the cost of the project includes cost items:

• Buying a land plot - 475.00 thousand rubles;
• Construction of industrial premises - 71 387.73 thousand rubles;
• Purchase of main and auxiliary equipment - 55 593.29 thousand rubles;
• Installation of main and auxiliary equipment - 3,873.83 thousand rubles;
• Working capital - 1 112.77 thousand rubles;
• other expenses - 4,719.52 thousand rubles.

All expense items were calculated including VAT. The estimated cost of the investment project is RUB 137,162 thousand.

The average number of employees for the organization of a plant for the production of drinking water must be at least 33 people.

The purchased land plot provides for the construction of buildings and structures:

• a production workshop for bottling drinking water;
• checkpoint;
• a pumping station, the capacity of which should be 12 m 3 / hour;
• underground pumping station;
• parking for cars;
• a fire tank, the volume of which must be at least 75 m 3;
• a diesel fuel tank, the volume of which is 10 m 3;
• outhouse restroom;
• cesspools with volumes of 50 m 3, 25 m 3;
• platforms for KTPK-160/6.

The total building area will be about 1790 m 2.

Planned well productivity - 12.7 m 3 / hour. The capacity of the drinking water blowing machine is 1.5L. (3000 pcs.) Bottles or 5 liters. (500 pcs.) Bottles. The real productivity of the machine is 85% of the nominal value. The operating mode at the factory is an 8-hour working day.

The implementation of this business plan largely depends on the long-term strategy and marketing policy of the plant. However, as a result of calculating the projected indicators, the following values \u200b\u200bwere established:

• project cost in the amount of 137,160,000 rubles;
• the payback period of the plant is 4.6 years;
• the discounted payback period of the plant is 7.6 years;
• the plant's net present value (NPV) 19,328,000 rubles;
• profitability index - 1,15;
• an internal rate of return of 21%.

Based on the calculated indicators, it can be concluded that the production of drinking water is profitable and cost-effective with the correct organization of the production process and successful marketing activities.

If you have decided to start your own manufacturing business, then the idea of \u200b\u200bselling drinking water will surely interest you. Before starting the production and sale of goods, I want to note the significant advantages and disadvantages of this method of earning.

Pros of a bottled drinking water business

• Firstly, water is a commodity that belongs to the food group. No person can go without liquid for a long time. Therefore, we can conclude that this product will always be in demand and relevant, and the drinking water business will be profitable.
• Secondly, a big plus of this type of income is the organization of a business in almost any locality. People's needs for purified drinking water are only growing, because the quality of water supply systems is only getting worse every year. In this regard, it will soon be impossible to drink tap water at all, so the business prospects for the production and sale of bottled water will only increase.
• Thirdly, this type of business does not require relatively large financial investments, especially if your company will only be engaged in the sale of drinking water, and not its production.
• Fourth, it's a quick payback. If you can compete in the market, you will soon recoup all the costs spent on the business, and get a clean and constant profit.

Cons of a drinking water business

• The first significant disadvantage is a lot of competition in this area. A beginner, with only one idea and desire, cannot break into such a complex niche without money. Many firms have been specializing in this area for a long time and have been in this business for many years.
• But do not despair, you must correctly analyze the demand and the level of competition in your city. Many firms sell low-quality goods, you can stay and firmly gain a foothold in the market only by providing the consumer with a quality product at an affordable price.
• The second minus is constant checks by the sanitary-epidemiological service of the conditions at your production and the quality of the products.
• Solid start-up capital. To open a production, you will need an impressive amount of money. You can find partners for yourself, because it will be difficult for one to promote such a large-scale project.
• In general, competition is the main disadvantage of this business, if you are sure that you can handle it, then I recommend that you try to bring this idea to life.

Drinking water production business plan

Experienced businessmen know that a well-written business plan is half the battle. Therefore, at the initial stage, I recommend that you do exactly this business.

What should be reflected in the business plan?

First, it's worth determining the profitability of the idea. To do this, analyze the level of demand and competition in your locality.

Secondly, you need to correctly distribute the available funds. To do this, you need to have clear data on the costs of the project. All this will be displayed in the financial section.

Thirdly, this is the payback period of the business. The plan must indicate the approximate payback period of the project, the receipt of the first profit. This is necessary in order to navigate and not deviate from a clear plan of action. Also, this item will interest investors, people who will be ready to invest in your business.

Documents for opening a drinking water production?

• SP or LLC? For starters, it is worth registering with the tax office as a private entrepreneur (in case of sale) or as a legal entity if you are a water producer.
• Certificates from the fire service and SES on the compliance of the equipment with all norms and quality standards.
• Certificate of the quality used in the production of water (issued by the sanitary and epidemiological service).
• A license for the right to engage in entrepreneurial activity (a lease agreement for premises, equipment, your personal data). All documents must be notarized without fail.

Also, in the future, you will need to draw up contracts with suppliers of water (in case you will not extract it yourself), containers and other consumables.

Rent of premises

The next step on the way to realizing the idea of \u200b\u200bwater production will be the selection and rental of premises.

The area must meet the requirements and standards. Everything will depend on the volume of production.

The area of \u200b\u200bthe room includes:

• Place, area where water will be extracted (if this is part of the specifics of your enterprise);
• Separate rooms for liquid cleaning and spillage;
• Warehouse for storage of finished products
• Working staff room.
• The room must meet all SES standards.

Location. It is best to rent a room outside the city, where rental prices are much lower, you can save a lot.

It is more profitable to open an enterprise for the production of drinking water in a big city, but due to the huge competition, you can try to find a profitable place near small settlements.

Equipment for the production of drinking water

In order to start production, you will need to purchase or rent equipment:

• For water purification (aeration system and reagent dosing).
• For filling into containers
• Equipment for the manufacture of bottles (of course, this equipment is not necessary, you can do without it).

As an additional income, you can start recycling plastic bottles by purchasing the appropriate equipment for this. See from which you will learn all the nuances of this type of activity.

Bottled water production

If you decide to develop your business in this direction, then you will need to purchase equipment for the manufacture of bottles, as well as for washing them, because the container will be reusable.

You can see how this process takes place in the video:

Water production technology:

1. Artesian well drilling;
2. Water purification using special charcoal or sand filters;
3. Correction of the level of minerals;
4. Disinfection with ultraviolet rays;
5. Ozonation of water
6. Spilling water into containers

Selling drinking water as a business

Supply contracts are concluded with consumers directly if you are a water producer. If your specialization is only the sale of water, then you first need to conclude contracts with manufacturers. It is best to choose several options, check the quality of the products. To do this, you need to request samples and analyze the water quality in the laboratory. A very important criterion for any businessman is the purchase price. You need to choose the most suitable option in the price range.

Costs

If your company deals only with the supply of drinking water to your home, then the costs will be as follows:

Premises for rent. You must rent a place where your products will be stored. Any warehouse is suitable for these purposes, even outside the city.

Transport. To deliver the goods, you will need to have a vehicle. For these purposes, the most suitable option would be a gazelle. It is important that the car does not consume a lot of gasoline, so you should choose an economical and roomy option.

Along with the current growth in health promotion, so too is the consumption of purified bottled water. And since the quality of tap water in Russia is very far from ideal, many consumers today are ready to pay for a good product. And you can make good money on this trend if you open your own production of bottled drinking water. Drinking water is water that has passed several stages of purification and filtration. The final product can be packaged in different containers - plastic, glass.

Our business valuation:

Initial investments - from 2,000,000 rubles.

Market saturation is high.

Difficulty starting a business - 6/10.

The drinking water business has many advantages that make this niche attractive to many aspiring entrepreneurs:

• Carbonated and non-carbonated drinking water is in high demand.
• You can organize your own workshop literally in any region of our country, since there are no problems with the supply of "raw materials".
• This business is variable, which will allow the entrepreneur to choose the path of development that is more suitable in a particular case - taking into account the available investments.
• With established distribution channels, even an impressive investment pays off quickly enough.

But, as in the case with any other direction, there are also disadvantages that should be taken into account when drawing up a business plan for the production of drinking water:

Don't you fear difficulties? Then you can open a plant for the production and bottling of drinking water.

For a novice entrepreneur starting a small workshop, it is better to buy a water filling line, which is equipped with the following items of equipment:

• Inlet water purification system (aeration and reagent dosing system).
• Filling machine.

Water filling line

In addition to the main machines, the line can be retrofitted with a machine for the production of plastic bottles from special blanks. Over time, you can even buy an entire line that will recycle plastic waste into bottles. This way you can significantly save on the purchase of the necessary raw materials.

The price of equipment for bottled drinking water, excluding additional machines, is at least 1,000,000 rubles. And most of the funds will go to the cleaning system. A supported line can be bought for 600,000 rubles.

Sales options for finished products and profitability of the planned business

The high price of a drinking water bottling line will begin to pay off when channels for the supply of finished products to customers are established. And here 2 options are possible:

• Organization of our own water delivery service (this implies the production of water for coolers).
• Sales of finished products to retail outlets.

In the business plan being drawn up, the issue of further marketing of finished products must be resolved, since it affects both the purchase of additional equipment and the construction of a marketing policy.

Delivery of drinking water will require your own vehicle fleet. Otherwise, even the profit will not cover transportation costs. There is a real scope for activity here, since today every second office has coolers. And in order to offer potential customers favorable terms of cooperation for them, you can provide them with coolers for free. But this is also an additional expense.

It can be more profitable to sell finished products to retail outlets than to produce and transport drinking water to offices. But here it is important to establish wholesale distribution.

As for the profit that an entrepreneur should count on, everything here is strictly individual - the main influence is exerted by those investments that the production and sale of drinking water will require. The minimum investment required to organize a workshop (purchase of equipment and its commissioning + obtaining all permits and licenses + preparation of the premises for work + purchase of packaging) - 2,000,000 rubles. This amount will increase significantly if we start talking about drilling our own well or organizing a delivery service. It is possible to calculate the size of the expected profit based on what the cost of drinking water will be and how much of it will be sold to customers monthly. The price of bottled water ranges from 100-180 rubles / 5 liters.

Any food and liquid must be of good quality so that a person does not face serious poisoning and illness. The requirements for water are even tougher, because no life is possible without it. But there are few reserves of pure natural water that can be drunk without preliminary treatment. The tap liquid has to be passed through a filter, defended or boiled. But, when thirst torments, there is no time and desire for such procedures. It's easier to buy bottled water at a store or order it home through a delivery service. There is never a lot of drinking water, and the demand is growing. This enables the entrepreneur to develop a business plan for the production of drinking water and offer his range on the market.

To understand what investments are needed to implement the idea, it is advisable to prepare a business plan for the production of drinking water with calculations. It can be presented as a good example to banks or other partners who decide to help financially.

Summary

It is planned to launch the production of carbonated and non-carbonated drinking water without any additives. The main activity is aimed at the production of soft drinks.

The raw materials will come from a personal well. The deposit was found, the quality and composition of the water was determined in the state laboratory. The well is located in a forest. There is no opportunity to establish production directly at the source. Therefore, water will be pumped into reservoirs and delivered to a production facility located in the suburbs.

Premises: 2-storey building with adjoining territory. Premises area - 300 sq. m. On the 1st floor there will be a workshop and a warehouse, on the 2nd floor there will be rooms for staff and administration. The building requires repair and redevelopment, communications.

Form of activity: LLC (limited liability company). Activity code No. 11.07 - “Production of soft drinks, various drinking water in bottles”.

Taxation - simplified (STS).

Service list

• Production of drinking water, carbonated and non-carbonated.
• Wholesale to grocery stores and supermarkets.
• Targeted delivery to customers by call.

Production mode

Production: daily from 09.00 to 19.00.

Targeted delivery service: from 08.00 to 20.00.

Preparation of documents

Based on the fact that the raw materials will be used from their own well, it is necessary to draw up documents for this area. Having received a permit and the right to work, we hand over the water for research to a state laboratory. Conclusion on the examination on hand. The water does not contain large impurities, which will reduce the number of cleaning steps. The worse the water, the more expensive production will be and the more difficult it will be to compete with water with the best taste.

• Administration permission to open a drinking water plant.
• Lease agreement for the premises where the production of drinking water will be located.
• SES conclusion on the possibility of opening a workshop in the selected area.
• Conclusion of the fire department on safety conditions.
• Quality certificates for the equipment that will be used at the enterprise.
• Certificate of the quality of water that will be supplied to the consumer. Without this passport, stores will not take goods to their counters.
• The contract with the power supply for the connection of a line with a high capacity, because the production line is fully automated.
• Employees must have a health book and an employment contract.

Project estimate

Let's move on to an important part of the business plan - calculations. This will allow you to determine the costs that will arise during the preparation stage for the launch of the bottled water line. The items of expenditure will be reflected in the table:

These are the costs of equipping the well and the water production workshop with equipment. Additionally, funds will be required for cosmetic finishing, furnishing, and communications.

Investment information is preliminary. The cost of equipment, finishing materials, different services may differ, because the contractors and suppliers have not yet been selected. But preliminary investments of more than 10 million rubles are needed to launch the production of drinking water. Transportation costs for moving raw materials from the well to the plant, delivery of products to customers, funds for operating the production until the first profit is not taken into account. Let's add 1.5 million rubles to these costs. The final estimate is 11.5 million rubles.

Personnel issue

The production needs employees who will work at the groundwater extraction site and at the plant. For the complex to work properly, you will need:

• Specialists in the extraction of underground water - 2 people.
• Driver for transportation of raw materials and bottled water - 2 persons.
• Equipment commissioning engineer - 2 people, shift work schedule.
• Operator for the water production line - 2 people. in shifts.
• Operator on the machine for blowing containers - 2 people. in shifts.
• Warehouse manager for finished products - 2 people. in shifts.
• Sales manager - 1 person, working mode 5/2
• Dispatcher for receiving individual applications - 2 people. in shifts.
• Production manager - 1 person
• Accountant with HR functions - 1 person.
• Handymen - 4 people.
• Cleaning lady of production and service areas - 2 people.

It may be necessary to expand the staff as the plant develops. We will reflect the costs of wages in the table:

The plant provides for a shift work schedule for some employees. This is due to the daily work of production in order to quickly reach the required profitability of the enterprise.

We plan the timing of preparation for the opening

So that the preparation process does not drag on, we will set a time frame for each stage and follow this plan:

It will take about 6 months for the workshop to operate at full capacity. Perhaps the terms will be shifted due to unforeseen circumstances. It is desirable that water becomes available to consumers in the summer season. At this time, the demand for bottled water increases due to the high air temperature and an increase in the feeling of thirst. You can quickly make a profit and analyze the profitability of the business.

Assortment and price level for water

The production is young and has not yet found its client. Therefore, you should not open a line of a wide range of bottled water. The list of products and cost will be reflected in the table:

As the payback is reached, water for children and mineral water can be added to the assortment.

What we get as a result

Let's calculate the possible profit that the production of water should bring to the entrepreneur. We will take the implementation of the entire range as a basis, provided that there will be a daily shipment of 2000 bottles of different volumes.

Provided that the daily proceeds are 98,000 rubles and shipments will be carried out at least 5 times a week, the monthly revenue is planned to be 1,960,000 rubles. Now you can calculate the profitability and net profit that will be received for the month. Income and costs are reflected in the table:

At the initial stage, investments of 11.5 million rubles were made. The enterprise will reach recoupment in 2.5 years. The term may change if the monthly turnover is higher than that taken as the basis for the calculation in the business plan.

We strengthen our positions in the segment

There are many producers of drinking water on the market, so the fight will be serious. You need to think over a strategy to consolidate your position in the market and attract an audience that already buys bottled water. You will need the help of a specialist who knows the state of the niche and the positions of other manufacturers. We will turn our attention to the production side in order to provide people with quality water.

At the initial stage, we focus on the delivery of water on an individual request, so that local residents know about our products. For this:

• Together with the supplier, we will launch a campaign designed for a large volume of delivery. For example, every 3rd bottle is a gift, or with a one-time payment for 10 bottles of water, a 10% discount from the entire volume.
• Conduct a water tasting in a supermarket for consumers to evaluate the quality and issue an application.
• Send e-mail and written messages about cooperation with enterprises, offices on favorable terms.
• Offer services to kindergartens, schools, universities at a reduced price for a one-time application of at least 5 bottles.
• To design a website where you can post information about your production and favorable terms of cooperation for retail and wholesale customers.

Follow the pricing policy of competitors so as not to get out of the general order with the too high cost of drinking water.

Eventually

It is possible to earn solid capital in the production of drinking water if there is finance for this, a good source of groundwater and a territory for a workshop. The investments are huge, because the process of purifying raw materials requires only a high-quality automated line. Don't be afraid of competition. Consumers usually prefer water from local producers, believing that it is not profitable for a businessman to deceive his fellow countrymen. But it is worth being prepared for frequent inspections of the SES for the quality and composition of products, so that there is no threat to the health of consumers.

To find out about all the stages that bottled water goes through before it gets to our home or office, we went to the neighboring republic - to the Sestritsa drinking water production plant.

So, today the program includes: where the water is obtained, how it is bottled and the focus "How do plastic bottles appear."

# 02. Artesian water is extracted from a depth of 120 meters in the protected natural zone of the Arbansky water intake and through a plastic pipeline it enters the plant. The source itself was not shown to us, since located in a protected area (therefore, it remains to take the word for it). In fact, I think so there and there is nothing to watch, because the well and pipes are underground:


The wells themselves belong to MUP Vodokanal, Yoshkar-Ola

# 03. At the inlet, the water passes through a series of filters - this is necessary in order to remove all small mechanical impurities (soil, sand, etc.) that could get into when it was taken from the well. Before the excursion to the plant itself, we were given a lecture on the topic: Water and health. In short: drink water in the morning, afternoon and evening (about 2 liters per day) and you will be healthy. We are talking about raw water, room temperature:

# 04. The director of the plant, Alexander Marushko, answered questions. The plant is a two-story building. On the first floor: receiving containers and pouring water into 19 liter bottles, and on the second floor pouring water into small 0.5 and 1.5 liters.

# 05. At the first stage: used bottles go to a special warehouse, and they are immediately sorted and up to 30% are rejected due to wear:

# 06. 19 liter bottles are made of high quality environmentally friendly polycarbonate and polyethylene, which does not affect the taste, color, smell or composition of the water.

# 07. Then the employee manually checks each bottle: looks at the light, sniffs and checks the label. If something is wrong, for example, the bottle came from the previous owner with a foreign smell, then it goes into marriage:

# 08. Bottles fall into a special area (access to which is strictly limited) to avoid dust, etc.:

• Washing with an alkaline non-foaming solution at a temperature of 65%. The high-pressure water jet washes away the main impurities. The concentration of the detergent is automatically maintained.
• Rinsing with ultraviolet water.
• Disinfection - Each bottle is treated for 18 seconds with an acidic disinfectant that is easy and completely washable and environmentally friendly.
• Final rinse with UV treated water. After each stage, the bottles are blown with filtered air.

#ten. After each stage, it is mandatory to rinse the bottles with ultraviolet-purified water. Next - disinfection with a hydrogen peroxide-based agent. The concentration of the detergent and disinfectant is automatically maintained.

#eleven. Everything is clean and tidy, so everyone was given hats, shoe covers and capes:

#12. Blog-tour to the Sestritsa water production plant

#thirteen. In the background there are 4 charcoal filters through which water necessarily passes. And then it is poured into cylinders. At the same time, the filling is contactless, so as not to spoil the bottles:

#fourteen. At the final stage, all water is ozonized. Ozone has a disinfecting and disinfecting effect. Therefore, when the cylinder is opened, there may be a specific smell (this is ozone), but literally after 30 seconds it disappears and the water no longer has a foreign smell. The ozonation apparatus itself:

#fifteen. In the next stage, the bottleclogged and tagged:

#sixteen. Date of manufacture is stamped:

# 17. And packed in bags:

#eighteen. Final control. The marriage should not leave the factory, it is marked and goes to the side:

#19. Before the water is diluted by branches, the water is stored in the warehouse and "listens" to classical music:

#20. The column in the warehouse, from which the classics sound:

# 21. Sister is charged with positive energy of the best works of world classical music! Of course, there is no official evidence of the impact of music, but it won't be worse either:

# 22. Then there is loading onto a car and water is delivered to: Yoshkar-Olu, Cheboksary, Kazan and Nizhny Novgorod:

# 23. Small bottles are bottled on the second floor of the plant:

# 24. Conveyor:

# 25. And here is this interesting thing. I thought that small bottles were brought to the factory and water was poured into them. Nothing like this. The plant buys the following blanks:

# 26. And from these preforms at a temperature of 200 degrees, the apparatus blows bottles of 0.5 and 1.5 liters: 4 bottles are produced in one blow:

# 27. Bottles are rinsed in sterile air. Each bottle is rinsed with UV-treated water for at least 10 seconds.

# 28. The sanitized bottles enter the filling box, where a sterile environment is also maintained.

# 29. And at the last stage, labels are applied:

#thirty. At the outlet, bottles are grouped by 12 pcs (0.5l) and 6pcs (1.5l) and packed in shrink wrap. This film does not form "bubbles" on the packaging and facilitates convenient transportation:

# 31. Each batch undergoes mandatory laboratory testing:

# 32. The factory has a small canteen. The cost of lunch is purely symbolic, for example, a salad of 5 rubles:

# 33. Such devices are in Kazan, last year I showed

# 34. During lunch, employees can play table tennis:

# 35. At the entrance, as befits a stand with medals and other achievements:
