<\/div>

Are water cans from neighbourhood stores still the source of drinking water for you? If you are someone who has moved out of your hometown and have settled in a city like Bengaluru, Hyderabad or Delhi, you might feel that getting a water can is the best option. But, have you ever thought about the quality of water you get in water cans? Probably not.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

This article will discuss the unorganised nature of the water can market in India and why you cannot trust the quality of water you receive in water cans. Don\u2019t worry, we also have the perfect solution to this problem.<\/p>\n

\n

Just a heads-up:<\/strong>\u00a0The majority of the water cans contain water with impurities and other elements that are unsafe to consume!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here\u2019s what we will discuss in this article:<\/p>\n

How the unorganised nature of water can market affects you<\/p>\n

Why you cannot trust the quality of water you get in water cans<\/p>\n

How to get excellent quality drinking water at an affordable price<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The water can market in India still functions as an unorganised sector leading to water quality concerns. Let\u2019s understand it a little better.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. How the unorganised nature of water can market affects you<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Did you know that there are thousands of unlicensed packaged drinking water providers in India? The problem with having illegal drinking water providers is that there is no way to monitor the quality of water delivered by them.<\/p>\n

    While water cans from the licensed brands have the Bureau of Indian Standards mark on them, the unlicensed, unbranded cans come with no such official stamps. This means that there is no government or private organization that has tested the water quality.<\/p>\n

    \n
    \n
    \"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

    This is a cause of major concern because you can never be sure of the contaminants present in the water in these water cans.<\/p>\n

    2. Why you cannot trust the quality of water you get in water cans<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The majority of the surface water in India is polluted. By majority, we mean almost 80% of it! The groundwater in India is also polluted. The groundwater in different areas has different contaminants.<\/p>\n

    So, how does this impact the drinking water you get in a water can, right?<\/p>\n

    As mentioned earlier, a large number of packaged drinking water providers are unlicensed and the quality of water they provide in water cans is unmonitored. There is no way to find the source of the water and whether the water has been purified (at all!). Reputed newspapers have published several reports on how certain water can providers fill water from roadside taps.<\/p>\n

    This water can be harmful to your health because:<\/p>\n

    > It may contain high fluoride\/iron content<\/p>\n

    > It may have a high level of total dissolved solids (TDS)<\/p>\n

    > It may have a high Ph level<\/p>\n

    > It may be hard water<\/p>\n

    \n
    \n
    \"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

    Moreover, the plastic cans need to be cleaned after every use and have to be recycled every couple of months. But, how many times have you seen plastic water cans without any scratch marks or dirt? Probably zero. So, even if the water is clean before being filled in the water can, it will be polluted by the time it gets to your home or office.<\/p>\n

    3. How to get excellent quality drinking water at an affordable price<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Now that you know you cannot trust the quality of water you get in 20-Litre water cans, how do you access safe drinking water without spending a lot of money?<\/p>\n
