Regulation

Bottled water is one of the most extensively regulated packaged-food products. The industry receives government oversight from federal and state agencies nationwide, providing consumers with multiple safety assurances – from the finished product back to the source.

Bottled water is regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, which regulates food industries and pharmaceuticals.

Bottled water must be tested for the same parameters as tap water, but in some cases the standards are stricter than for tap water. State governments inspect and certify the “sources” of spring water, which means samples, have been analyzed and their quality found to be safe and sanitary.

Oversight

Nestlé Waters North America voluntarily submits to outside party inspection of all our bottling facilities. This audit ensures that we meet the most stringent guidelines for sanitation and process control. In addition, we comply with inspections from the FDA, OSHA and Nestlé Waters-mandated audits. We employ a HACCP inspection plan at all our bottling facilities. HACCP is recognized worldwide as the leading food safety program for food and pharmaceuticals.
