Research Overview
In compiling its research, Zenith International relies on the goodwill and co-operation of companies active in the marketplace. All information is cross-checked with other sources, such as trade associations and suppliers, to ensure as complete a picture as possible. Although we strive to provide data as accurate as possible, some figures presented are Zenith’s estimates. Based on individual producer volumes for the year, market, sector and segment totals are calculated from the ‘bottom up’. At a sector and segment level, adjustments are then made for any double counting of contract and licensed bottling. Estimates for any unauthorised soft drink imports sold through the ‘grey market’ are also included. However, this is more pronounced in categories such as energy drinks rather than bottled water. A complete picture of the UK bottled water drinks market is thus produced through Zenith’s extensive study of the largest importers and bottlers, alongside small to medium sized operators and own label specialists. The market figures presented therefore encompass all aspects of bottled water drinks including: take home, impulse and on-premise/foodservice; water cooler volumes for the office; and a small amount of home delivery water. To this end, a considerable amount of time and effort is spent contacting industry players and striving to analyse the complexities of the UK bottled water drinks arena. We believe Zenith’s coverage of the total UK bottled water drinks market to be without equal and to have attained a consistently high level of accuracy. Zenith would like to express its sincere gratitude to the entire UK bottled water drinks industry for its continued help and assistance during the research process. Our gratitude also extends to UK industry associations for their support, including: BSDA (British Soft Drinks Association), BWCA (British Water Cooler Association), NHC (Natural Hydration Council) and BBWP (British Bottled Water Producers).

Spring Water The basic requirements of the UK regulations are: Must come from a groundwater source. Must be bottled at source (unless the practise was to tanker to the bottling plant on or before 23rd November 1996). In the UK, spring water can currently undergo some forms of treatment. The water can only be bottled under a single named Spring Water. However, additional Bottled Drinking Waters can be produced from the same source. The water must meet requirements for microbiological and chemical purity based on the requirements for tap water.
Bottled Drinking Water The basic requirements of the UK regulations are: ‘Bottled drinking water‘is a legal category of water and should not be confused with the general use of the term ‘bottled water’. Can come from any source – groundwater, surface water (e.g. a lake or river), tap water or other (e.g. glacier, iceberg, rainwater) Need not be bottled at source. Can undergo any form of water treatment. Water from a single source can be bottled under different names. Can be bottled under any description except one that is misleading to consumers. Use of the description natural mineral water, spring water or mineral water is not permitted. Some commonly used descriptions are ‘Table Water’ and ‘Purified Water’. The water must meet requirements for microbiological and chemical purity based on the requirements for tap water. These definitions are a simple description of the requirements of the UK bottled water regulations.
