At the following stage the water is passed through activated carbon and softened to a certain extent and collected in a tank of the volume of 5 tons. Then industrial water is consistently passed through the fine filters of the sizes of 10 micron and 5 micron and exposed to an ultra-violet Hight. The completely treated water is supplied to the Production Department.
Production Department
The Department work is performed at high level in accordance with the European requirements. Here, the water treated and cooled up to 10°C and enriched with carbon dioxide or carbon-dioxide gass (CO2) in a degree of 9 g/l. This work is carried out on equipment of German Company «Wayskof».

In the Department various analytical devices for quality, quantity and microbiological analyses are placed. They are made in the developed countries of Europe.
Here, observance of sanitary norms at the Enterprise, quality of used water, raw and packing materials is consistently controlled. The compliance with the established norms of mineralization degree and carbon-dioxide gas content in the finished goods as well as pH indicator is constantly checked. The analyses are conducted in accordance with the European requirements.
The finished goods of this Enterprise will provide the people of the country with curative water of the sacred Turkmen land. The versatile medical properties of this mineral water is a convincing basis for its export to the foreign countries.
