Innovive water formulation process:


1. The process starts with softened municipal water.

2. The water is run through a carbon tower.

3. Next,it passes through a high-throughput Reverse Osmosis System.

4. The water is then processed through an Aqua Chem Steam Distillation unit. (This unit puts out 1000 gph with a distillate normally in the range of 0.2um to 0.5um).

5. This distilled water is stored in a 60,000 gallon stainless steel silo. 24/7, the water is recirculated through an Aquafine Ultraviolet Disinfection System with a wavelength at 254 nanometers. In addition, all the air that feeds into the silo also goes through a HEPA filter and UV system.

6. The water passes through a bank of 20 Millipore 0.2um absolute micro filters,

7. Then, it is processed through a second Aquafine 254nm UV System.

8. Water enters the contact tank, where it is injected with OZONE. Ozone is a very powerful, free of residues, oxidizing agent that has a wide kill effect over a broad spectrum of microorganisms. From here the water goes directly to the Filler and into the bottles.

9. The Filler is housed in a room where the incoming air is passed through HEPA filters and multiple UV Systems.

10. As a final step in the process, the bottled water is acidified to a ph between 2.5 and 3.0

11. Following capping, the bottles are double shrink-wrapped and palletized.

12. All water surfaces are stainless steel and cleaned and sanitized with a built-in Clean-In-Place (CIP) system.
