Drinks and Carbonated BeveragesSectional Committee, FAD 14

FOREWORThis Indian Standard First Revision)was adoptedby the Bureauof Indian Standards, after the draft finalizedbythe Drinks and Carbonated Beverages Sectional Committee had been approved by the Food and AgricultureDivision Council.This standard was originally published in 1998. In preparingthis standard, assistance had been derived from thefollowing:

a) Manualon water supply and treatment third edition), 1991, prepared by the expert committee constitutedunder the Ministry of Urban Development,New Delhi.b) CodexCode of practice for collecting,processingand marketingof natural mineral waters CAC/Rep 331985c) EE Directive, 80/778/EEC relating to the quality of water intended for human consumption.

Consumption of packaged water for drinking purposes has been increasing considerably in the country. Apartfrom water shortagesat times, real and perceivedneeds to safeguardhealth have also contributedto an escalatingtrade in packaged drinking water at the national and international level. Consideringthe consumers health andsafety it has become imperativeto ensure that the packaged water offered for sale is safe and free from harmfulorganisms. This revision has been undertaken to incorporate six amendments alongwith the technologicaldevelopments, check list for hygienic requirements and consumer requirements. It is expected that this standardwould help in achieving the above objective. .Separate standards have been formulated for packaged natural mineral water s IS 13428 : 1998 Packagednatural mineral water first revision)] and drinking water [see IS 10500 : 1991 Drinking water first revision) ].In the preparation of this standard due consideration has been given to the provisionsof the Prevention o fooAdulteration Act, 1954 and the Rules framed thereunder. This standard is, however, subject to the restrictionsimposed under these rules, wherever applicable.For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of the standard is complied with, the final value,observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded in accordance withIS2 : 1960 Rules for roundingoff numerical values revised) . The number of significant places retained in therounded-off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.
