Water Source
Source:
Located at Ballinfoile, Galway at a depth of over 300 feet, Galway Water is fed by fresh rain soaked clouds from the Atlantic Sea and filtered by Mother Nature through the hills and limestone fields of the Galway countryside.
Throughout the year, as rains fall, it filters down into the limestone rock deep below the surface and over time this water filters into aquifers from which Galway Water flows. Galway Pure Irish Still Water is a microbiologically wholesome water, originating in an underground water table and merging from a spring tapped at a number of borehole exits, which is bottled and packaged at source.
Galway Pure Irish Still Water is not treated except in a very limited and restrictive manner and is bottled subject to the requirements of Council Directive 98/83/EC on the quality of water intended for human consumption and European Communities (Hygiene of Foodstuffs) Regulations, 2000, (S.I. No 165 of 2000) which transposed Council Directive 93/43/EEC of 14 June 1993 on the hygiene of foodstuffs.
