OUR STORY
Watella was born with a simple objective: to provide the highest quality drinking water at an affordable price, while also benefitting the underprivileged of the country. We operate with an unwavering stance on maintaining hygiene and product quality as well as a sense of responsibility to our environment and society.
This is why Watella is purified, processed and bottled in a fully automatic water processing facility, made to order in the United States of America by Norland International, ensuring that every single bottle lives up to our promise of purity. From the time a bottle enters our premises to the time it reaches you, there is absolutely no human contact with the product that could cause any kind of contamination or impurity.
We operate on a strict policy of minimizing waste: from paper to plastic, we ensure that we recycle as much as is possible, so that we’re not adding to the environmental problems that plague our country. On the other hand, we’re continuously giving back to society, through donations to deserving institutions as well as supplies at discounted prices to hospitals. A portion of our profits is dedicated to setting up fully sustainable Reverse Osmosis plants in the Thar region, where clean drinking water is a luxury for most people.
When you choose Watella, you’re buying so much more than just water. You’re becoming part of a greater philosophy for good.
OUR WATER
People tend to think that water is, well, just water. If only it were that simple! Drinking water is a complex combination of purification systems, combined with the perfect balance of minerals for vitality and finally, a secure bottling environment that ensures that every bottle carries the best water we can produce.
When you drink Watella, you will find that it is light, gentle water, enriched with Calcium and Magnesium and low on Sodium – so that you’re getting more of what you need. Because of our industry leading water softening and polishing process, you’ll find that the water in your glass is not just absolutely clear but that it almost shines.
Our water is compliant with the standards set by the Pakistan Standards and Quality Control Authority, as well as the World Health Organization and the International Bottled Water Association.
Most people need to drink around eight glasses of water a day – although you can use our hydration calculator to determine exactly what your needs are. The water you drink is not just good for your kidneys, but also for your heart, muscles and bones. That’s why we say, Drink Pure, Live Better.
OUR PROCESS
Watella is purified, processed and bottled on our fully automatic, state of the art plant, manufactured on order in the United States of America by Norland International. Therefore, it utilizes the very best technologies, giving you the highest quality of pure water.
Our quality system starts with relentless testing of the source water, so that we know that we’re starting with good water. The water is then purified using Activated Carbon and Zeolite. Zeolite is a natural mineral, formed when volcanic rock or ash reacts with alkaline water. It is the modern and advanced replacement of sand-bed filters, which are commonly used in Pakistan.
After being filtered, the water is fed into our Reverse Osmosis system. This system is capable of removing all kinds of impurities from water, bringing it to almost zero TDS (Total Dissolved Solids). The water is then further purified using Ultraviolet light treatment, before being moved to sterile storage tanks. At this stage, the water is tested again to ensure that all elements of the purification process have performed as expected.
Minerals are then added back into the water, giving it taste and flavor and also ensuring that you are getting more of what you need from water. Watella is enriched with Calcium and Magnesium, amongst other minerals, making every glass nourishing and refreshing.
Prior to filling, Ozone gas is injected into the water. Ozone gas is one of the most effective disinfectants known to man, and the injection of the gas into the water ensures that no bacteria build up in the bottle during storage.
Finally, our bottles are washed and sanitized on our fully automatic plant, ensuring no human-touch in the process. The ozonated water is then filled into the bottles and sanitized caps are applied on the bottles, on the same automatic plant.
