Starting up a company or business of any kind requires that you understand how the whole production process works.
Even if the thing your selling is packaged and bottled in a different part of the country or the world, it’s still smart to know how it’s made so you can address any customer questions that might arise.

Water Bottle Filling Basics
Most likely, you’re looking for a company who can satisfy your water bottle filling needs so that your business can run smoothly.
As you shop around, ask about sanitation, production times, product options, and how well their customer service department functions. In some cases, you’ll just have to make a few phone calls here and there to see how well you like their customer service.
It’s important to have a good relationship with the company you’re using, and that the company values its customers and doesn’t leave you hanging at all.
If you find that you’re hard-pressed to find a company you think that you’d like, it might be a good idea to open up your own water production line and cut out the middle man.
How It Gets Into Bottles
Before water hits our lips, it goes through a long bottling process. That starts with filtration to make sure that there aren’t any contaminants or pollutants present in the water. Then, it’s vaporized in a distillation process that removes all of the minerals and materials that don’t travel along in the form of vapor.
Next, the water goes through a reverse osmosis process to further clean. The water that you drink in the bottle may even go through an ozonation process and UV-light treatment to ensure that there are no pollutants present.
These factors all work together to make sure that there’s nothing harmful or dangerous in the water, then the water is stored to be bottled.
The bottling process is entirely industrialized, with hundreds of thousands of bottles set up on a machine to run through an assembly line of filling and capping. Smaller operations might not have the same volume, but the process remains the same unless an artesian bottle is being used.
This process is mechanical and gets the job done effectively, considering there are so many bottles to fill and cap, and it would be unsanitary and cost-ineffective to do all of that work by hand.
