Water is super important! Every day, we make use of water, to drink, cook, wash, and keep healthy. Have you ever wondered how the water gets into those bottles we see at the stores? Let us learn everything there is to know about water bottle plants and the great thing they do!
The water first passes through a purification system. This is the system that is like a superman and removes minute dirty parts that we are totally unaware of. Like a big sponge that absorbs all the bits that shouldn't be in our water. They clean the water and make it really, really pure!
The machines are very smart. They inspect each bottle to be sure it looks just-so. You can never have a bottle too large or too small. Then they top off the bottle with clean fresh water. It is then capped and a special label is affixed to the bottle indicating the company that packaged the water.
The big trucks move the water bottles from the plant to various stores. And finally, it is like taking a long road trip for the water! When the trucks show up, workers empty their boxes, placing the bottles on shelves or in cold refrigerators.
The workers in the plants where the water bottles come from do all the heavy lifting to ensure this water is safe for the public. They clean their machines with precision and test their water repeatedly. This ensures that the drinking water is excellent and safe.
So scientists are constantly inventing cool new methods for producing water bottles. Some new bottles are made with plants and therefore should break down more easily in nature. It is another method to contribute to saving our planet!
So, next time you drink water from a bottle, you are going through a fabulous process. All the way from the cleaning machines to the meticulous workers and the trucks that deliver water to stores — it is an extensive team effort led a few people.
