CLASSIFICATION BOTTLED WATER OF THE WORLD


That water is expensive does not mean quality.


CLASSIFICATION BOTTLED WATER OF THE WORLD.

In this post I'll make a list of the quality of bottled water in the world. In other entries speak of its types

The quality is determined by the dry residue found on the label on the chemical composition.

The dry residue is an essential parameter that must always be taken into account when choosing the best water for you and your family.

Know that water is obtained by evaporating a sample of a particular brand and sediment in the tank (called dry residue) is weighed obtaining their share of the whole. The standard measurement is given by the milligrams that is in a liter of water (mg/l). That is the measurement indicated by the laboratory and shown on the label. Other times indicated in parts per million (ppm) and is often used to measure water temperature tester with a natural (no evaporation).

For the dry residue have three options:

  • Look at the label: is the fastest and most reliable method in countries where the legislation requires mandatory labeling because it is a consumer right.
  • Ask the packaging: could write an email to the packager of the water you drink regularly to know what is the dried residue.
  • Measure it yourself: if you have a water tester can do yourself sensor measurement and determine its purity in parts per million. You should also know that one thing is the dry residue called TDS (total dissolved solids) vaporized that measures a laboratory and appears on the label of the bottle in milligrams per liter and a dry residue called TDS in water at natural temperature which is measured parts per million. The two parameters are adequate to determine water quality but it may not be identical. For example, I've made a measurement with two of the tester for bottled water brand in Bronchales (Spain). One gives me a value of 21 and the other gives me a value of 33 while the dry residue measured by the laboratory and contained in the label is 35. The most reliable data is always the lab.

Water quality, as already mentioned, is highest in the distilled water because the dry residue is zero.

Therefore, the more dry residue has the worst water quality will be. Conversely, the lower dry residue has the higher water quality.

And the ranking is as follows:

  1. Bezoya (Spain) = 26.
  1. Agua Sana (Spain) = 34.
  1. Bronchales (Spain) = 35.
  1. Ducale (Italy) = 58.
  1. Ensui (Japan) = 66.
  1. Sanxinés (Spain) = 82.
  1. Sousas (Spain) = 132.
  1. Viladrau (Spain) = 139.
  1. Ogo (Holland) = 143.
  1. Fontoira (Spain) = 169.
  1. Lauquen (Argentina) = 189.
  1. Fuente del Val (Spain) = 187.
  1. Mondariz (Spain) = 192.
  1. Cabreiroá (Spain) = 202.
  1. Lanjarón (Spain) = 206.
  1. L’avellà (Spain) = 230.
  1. Font Vella (Spain) = 237.
  1. Aqua Bona (Spain) = 278
  1. Fontecelta (Spain) = 285.
  1. Evian (France) = 309.
  1. Insalus (Spain) = 816.
  1. Wattwiller (France) = 889.
  1. San Pellegrino (Italy) = 960.
  1. Saint Geron (France) = 1.158
  1. Chateldon (France) = 1.882

A greeting.

PS 1: If you wish to help indicate the value of dry residue of bottled water I have not yet ascertained or in any brand that you drink regularly look at this entry called Analysis bottled water in the world.
