We treat our natural spring water with ozonization. Ozone is found commonly in Nature and is a powerful water sanitizer. Ozone is formed when lightning bolts occur, or when electrical discharge creates a spark. It can also result from direct ultraviolet radiation from the sun reacting with the earth’s atmosphere. Generating Ozone is a relatively simple process. Ordinary air is the raw material, the majority of which is diatomic oxygen (O2) and nitrogen (N2).

Diatomic oxygen is a molecule composed of two oxygen atoms (O) held together by four shared electrons. As the air is drawn through the Ozone reaction chamber, energy is supplied which splits some oxygen molecules into oxygen atoms. Some of the atoms then react with oxygen molecules to form Ozone (O3). Lanark Pure monitors and samples Ozone levels in our water during the bottling process to guarantee optimum performance of the Ozone.

Ozone has been used to sterilize water as far back as 1929.
