Aquafina Water Disclosure Costs Company Business

Last week’s disclosure that Aquafina bottled water produced in St. Louis is just water from the city water treatment plant has already cost the company one institutional client and the president of a girl’s Catholic high school hopes Aquafina loses more.

Nerinx Hall High School is getting rid of its water bottle machines in the school cafeteria and will give students their own plastic water bottle.

Pepsico, the company that owns Aquafina has told the St. Louis Post Dispatch its water is not just tap water – that it goes through an additional purification process.
