Low Cost Mineral Water Plant
Whenever someone is thinking of going for a Low Cost Mineral Water Plant, there can be 2 -3 ways :
- Starting a low budget mineral water plant , with ISI
- Starting an RO Plant with Chiller , without ISI
- Starting a Mineral Water Business, with someone else’s production unit
Starting a Low Budget ISI Water Plant
Starting an ISI Water Plant requires you to be aware of Mineral Water Plant License Cost. It means installing all machinery confining to the B.I.S. Standards as per IS-14543, which is the standard set for Packaged Drinking Water (Technical Name for otherwise called “Mineral Water”). The cost of such a plant will include the cost of lab, Filling Machine, Plastic PET Blow Machine and plant construction as per ISI.
Going for Low Budget is actually going for a small scale mineral water plant. You will need to cut down the Mineral Water Plant Machinery Cost. For Example, instead of going for a 60 BPM machine you can go for a 24 BPM machine, or you can totally avoid the Bottles Manufacturing. In such a case, you can go for a small Jars Plant or Pouches Plant (if permissible in your state). If you are going for all 3 varieties like Bottles, Jars & Pouch; and still want to have a low cost mineral water plant, then you may need to get the bottles manufactured by some other source. This can cut the investment size-ably. Check the plastic pet bottle blowing machine price to know this. You can refer to the BIS website for the BIS rules & can also refer to the Cost Article to get more ideas on an ISI RO Plant Project Cost.
Can RO Plant with Chiller be the Option ?
People often confuse these type jars with the BIS approved 20 Ltr Transparent Jars, also called as “Bubble Tops”. There will be huge difference between a 20 Ltr Jar Mineral Water Plant Price (ISI) & an RO Plant with Chiller Price in India. As the former confine to ISI standards and the latter doesn’t. RO Plant with Chiller is NOT covered under the BIS premise, hence you always run a risk of your unit getting sealed, though clear policy is still to arrive.
Starting a Mineral Water Business with Someone else’s Production Unit
This means you will just own the brand, do marketing & someone else with a valid BIS license & production facilities will produce the bottles or Jars for you. This will save you from Mineral Water Plant Machinery Cost, Mineral Water Plant License Cost and you can be perfectly achieving your goal :- Having a low cost mineral water plant project.
This is also referred as “Co-Packing” Business. A new term emerging. It can be started with a very low investment compared to a manufacturing unit. You can refer to the special Playlist we have created on our Youtube Channel. We also offer consultancy for this called as “Tri-Party Consultation“.
We also throw light on this during our Online Training Sessions.
