A packaged drinking water mini plant is a viable small-scale business due to rising demand for safe drinking water in both rural and urban areas. The essential machinery includes a Reverse Osmosis (RO) plant with UV steriliser, ozone generator, sand & carbon filters, water storage tanks, bottle rinsing/filling/capping machine, and a labeling and shrink-wrapping unit. The cost of machinery for a mini plant starts from ₹15 -20 lakhs, depending on the level of automation, size and capacity. A typical plant can process around 500 to 3,000 litres per hour. The primary raw materials required are water (borewell or municipal), bottles or jars (PET or polycarbonate), caps, labels, and outer packaging. The area required is from 1,000-1,500 sq. ft. with provisions for water treatment, bottling and storage. The packaged drinking water can be sold to retail shops, restaurants, offices, hospitals, event organisers and through online and home delivery channels. The use of the product is for safe human consumption, especially in areas where potable water quality is poor, making it a consistent and high-demand product throughout the year.
