Filipino-owned Philippine Bottling Beverage Launches Banahaw Spring Purified Water

by - April 18, 2018


The past several years has seen the rise of water business in the country. With many people wanting to drink safe and clean water, delivering mineral, purified or alkaline water has become a thriving business. But are we sure that what we’re drinking is indeed safe? Do we even know where they source the water? Wanting to be transparent in an industry where many businesses touted theirs as the best, there’s a new player in the industry who can prove and ensure that in the field of purified water and non-carbonated drinks, theirs is purified and sourced from water in the famous mountain in the South  of Luzon.

 The Philippine Bottling Beverage (PBB), a 100% Filipino-owned company has become a new player in this industry and last April 16, 2018, they launched Banahaw Spring Purified Water at a well-attended media event on April 16 at the Manila House Private Club in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig City.  

In his speech during the launch, Thor Jourdan Mutuc, Business Development Manager at PBB, shared how the company brought one of the latest European technologies to ensure that the production process upholds international standards and quality. “Our production facility located at the foot of Mount Banahaw in San Pablo, Laguna is at par with world standards, fully automated and requires minimal human intervention preserving only the essential natural qualities of the water from the mountain,” said Mutuc.

Revealing that it took three years of research and testing before Banahaw Spring Purified Water has been finally released to the local market, Mutuc further emphasized the intricate process of producing the country’s first purified water to have been named after its source.

“Today, we are sharing with you a purified water product harnessed from sustainable natural sources and bottled with care to ensure you get only safe and quality purified water we Filipinos can be proud of,” he added.

Known for its pristine and lush rainforests, Mount Banahaw also serves as watershed for the provinces of Laguna and Quezon. The water from this vast mountain area is the source of these two provinces’ supply, which are used for domestic, agricultural, and industrial purposes.

Acknowledging the importance of Mount Banahaw, PBB also ensures it takes care of the rural community, where it belongs, and advocates strict compliance of environmental standards in its operation.

“Water sustainability is the most significant aspect of our business,” Mutuc explained, “Beyond careful usage of water, we are putting in place measures that are geared towards protecting forests that nurture groundwater and contribute to the healthy circulation of water in nature.”

Banahaw Spring Purified Water is available in 350ml, 500ml, and one liter bottles. Aside from being free of Bisphenol A (BPA-free), each bottle is design-engineered to support core handgrip.
