Australian Bottled Water Institute Certification

The bottled water produced by ABWI members must meet standards that are, in some cases, stricter than the FSANZ standards. ABWI has developed a quality assurance program called the Model Code, which is a strict set of standards for the safe processing of bottled water. All members of ABWI must meet the standards contained in the Model Code.

What does it mean to be certified under the ABWI Code?

One of the primary objectives of the Model Code is to create a framework for the safe bottling of water, and guarantees the consumer a quality product. Another objective is to provide bottlers with a "how-to" framework, to assist them in raising the quality of their production methods. It is therefore important that bottlers realize that the Code is not simply a "food safety program".

HACCP certification or any other certification process, does not mean that you will comply with the ABWI Model Code.

NCS International can help you meet the requirements of the ABWI program. The program requires a commitment that goes above and beyond the minimum requirements of a food safety program.
