comparison Of Bottled Water Companies

Did you know that comparing different bottled water brands can help you make a more informed choice? It's true -- not all bottled water is the same. There are many variations and differences when it comes to bottled water. If you are interested in reading more about different brands of water, there is a great deal of information on the Net. The following comparison of bottled water companies includes four popular brands -- Evian, Dasani, Fiji and Poland Spring. These are brands you can find at most any supermarket in the U.S.

Evian is a non-sparkling mineral water imported from the French Alps where it is bottled at the source. The water in each bottle of Evian begins as snow, rain or melting ice which must travel through glacial sand to the aquifer which is protected by thick layers of natural clay. Some experts in the field of bottled water have called the taste and texture of Evian somewhat milky. However, unless you are an experienced taste tester of water you may not notice this quality. Some people think all water tastes the same, while others can tell a difference between brands. As far as price goes, Evian is more expensive than some brands because it is imported.

Dasani is bottled water made by the Coca-Cola company. In the United States, Dasani is taken from municipal water sources and filtered using a procedure called reverse osmosis. After that, small amounts of minerals including potassium, magnesium and sodium are added. This brand of water is widely available, reasonable in price and marketed well. You're not getting water from an exotic source but you do get a trace amount of minerals. Dasani is affordably priced as compared with similar brands.

Fiji is a bit more exotic thanks to the attractive tropical patterned bottle and the water inside. Known as artesian water, Fiji comes from a tropical aquifer which is found near a rainforest in Fiji, hence its name. This water is naturally pure and protected from pollution due to its location. It has a soft taste and contains natural silica. The silica is derived from natural filtration through volcanic rock. The price of Fiji water can be compared with other imported brands like Evian.

Finally, we have Poland Spring water which rounds out our comparison of bottled water companies. This brand of water is a spring water produced in Maine. It comes from natural springs located deep beneath the Earth's surface. This water has a light mineral content which adds to the smooth taste. At the bottling factory the water is carefully tested and screened to ensure it is of the best quality. Poland Spring is affordably priced as it is a domestic spring water made in the United States.
