Introduction to water sampling areas and water quality

Water sampling areas

Fuji-Sanroku (foot of Mt. Fuji)
1273-128 Hirano, Yamanakako-mura, Minami-tsuru-gun, Yamanashi prefecture

As the rainwater and melted snow seep into the ground around Mt. Fuji, the process by which this flows into ground water causes the minerals in the strata to dissolve, producing natural water with an abundance of minerals.

Silicon

Silicon (silica) is a mineral found in seaweed and shellfish, and is an important mineral for the formation of bones, hair, and nails, The intake of silicon is said to be effective in preventing arteriosclerosis, improving the immune function, and making bones more robust.

Hydrogen carbonate ions

Reactive oxygen species occur endlessly within our bodies. Reactive oxygen is said to be the cause of cancer, diabetes, and arteriosclerosis etc. Hydrogen carbonate ions are an effective antioxidant preventing these reactive oxygen species. Domestically in Japan, natural water in which hydrogen carbonate ions are dissolved has an extremely valuable existence. Additionally, as the hydrogen carbonate ions dissolved in natural water are ionized, unlike hydrogen water manufactured by machine, they can be absorbed easily by our bodies.

Water Treatment Method

 The well that is owned by the Fujinogensui Yamanako Factory, which manufactures “FUJI SUN SUI” is a deep well with extremely clean water from which no E.coli bacteria or microflora at all have been detected.

 As a further measure to ensure safety, the Yamanako Factory that performs bottling with this precious water source uses four high-performance filters of 5㎛ (microns)→1.5㎛→0.5㎛→0.2㎛ to produce its water.

 As a result of this process, an advanced production line has been introduced which means that even in the event of contamination with mold, E. coli bacteria, or microflora, these would be completely removed.

 This unheated water treatment system, which values natural minerals, is already commonly used in mineral water production plants in EU countries.
