Bottled Water
Water Analysis
Accreditation: DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025
Water is tested for total recoverable metals in accordance with EPA Methods and the European Drinking Water Regulation.
Water test values are compared to the Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCL) as defined by EPA and the European Water Regulation Offices. Since regulations are less stringent in the USA compared to Europe, we compare test values to European norms, but list EPA norms as well.
