Q. Does Natural Glacial Water contain added fluoride? A.No, never will.
Q. What are the available bottle sizes? A. 240mL, 500 mL, 710 mL, 1.0 L, 1.5 L
Q. Where is the water source? A. We have two water sources:
pure glacial spring water comes from an underground aquifer
glacial water is brought in from Sayward (Adam River) via tanker trucks
Q. Where can I buy Natural Glacial Water products? A. Our products are available in Canada. In international markets, they are available
in Taiwan, Japan, and China.
Q. Explain the company production process. A. The plant preserves the natural and fresh-tasting
quality by the following simple procedures:
filter down to .2 micron
use UV lights
add Ozone
Q. Does NGW accept private labeling? A. Yes, we accept orders for private labels. We will satisfy all individual bottling needs.
Q. What is TDS? A: Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) refers to any minerals, salts, metals,
cations or anions dissolved in water. Total dissolved solids comprise of
inorganic salts (principally calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium,
bicarbonates, chlorides and sulfates) and some small amounts of organic
matter that are dissolved in water. In general, the total dissolved solids
concentration is the sum of the cations (positively charged ions) and
anions (negatively charged ions) in the water. Therefore, the total
dissolved solids test provides a qualitative measure of the amount of
dissolved ions.
Q: What is the difference between Glacial Spring Water and Glacial Water? A: Glacial spring water is natural ground water from an underground formation that
flows to the surface of the earth by a natural force. In some cases,
gravity and geological formations may provide this force (such as springs
emerging from hillsides). Glacial water is water attained from a source
which originates from a glacier. In our case we use an infiltration
gallery to collect the glacial melt water from the Adam River, which
originates from the Schoen Glacier.
Q: What is the difference between blowing bottles on site as opposed
to purchasing finished pre-fabricated bottles? A: By blowing our own bottles on site we reduce the possibility of
contamination. Transportation as well as storage can create potential
contamination issues and by blowing our bottles we eliminate the need for
storage of bottles. A clean transport route can be ensured by carrying out
proper sanitation procedures on-site.
Q. What is the difference between using tap filter and using a
filtration process? A: Many of the filters that are found in our homes on tap contain a ttypical pore size
of about 0.5 microns. These filters can remove sediments, free chlorine,
bad taste and odor, and other organic compounds, but many microbiological
organisms are smaller in size than this. Our filtration process ensures
that all water is passed through a series of filters ranging in pore size
from 10 microns all the way down to 0.2 microns. This allows the removal
of organisms that are less than half the size of those stopped by tap
filtration. What this means is that people will get better, more purified,
water than from a common tap.
Q. What is UV and RO? A: They refer to the types of treatment used in the processing of water.
UV-ultraviolet, RO-reverse osmosis.
Q. What is Ozone? A: Ozone (O3), is an unstable gas that can destroy bacteria and viruses,
therefore bearing the label of nature's most efficient and purest
disinfectant. Ozone is generated onsite at the treatment facilities by an
electrical discharge through dry air or pure oxygen.
