Bottle ? Jar? Or Pouch ? or All ?

So, Whenever you think of starting your own mineral water plant or taking a

distributorship . This will be the most obvious question. Which will come to your

mind….

Bottle ? Jar? Or Pouch ? or All ?

of course if you decide about distributorship , you won’t have much choice ; but if

you decide to promote your own brand, you will have to decide your product mix.

The Subject of product mix is already discussed here on this Article

(http://mineralwaterprojectinformation.org/article/bottle-jar-or-pouch-or-all/.)

However besides the market demand , there are certain other factors which may

influence your decision. Such as …

Now we shall review & compare mainly the following types of end packing with

respect to these factors.

[All of these plants will be considered of standard basic module of 2000 LPH Capacity.]


1. Investment Involved :

Comparison on the basis of “Investment Involved”

Sr No Description Investment in Lakhs

1. Bottle + Jar + Pouch Plant 55

2. 20 Ltr Jar 30

3. 200 ml Pouch 30

The Bottle, Jar & Pouch Combined Plant needs the maximum investment , but

also has the maximum potential, as you combine all the popular products in your

mixes. If you want to start small & wish to capture an Offices or Factories segment,

“Jars” can be an excellent choice. And you can also start with small investment. Pouch

can be a very much small segment , but can be extremely targeted. The biggest

advantage of such a plant is its size, area required & ease of operating the machinery.

2. Profit Margin

Comparison on the basis of “Profit Margin”

Sr No Description Profit Margin in Percentage

1. Bottle + Jar + Pouch Plant 31 %

2. 20 Ltr Jar 57 %

3. 200 ml Pouch 34 %



Profit Margin is the highest in Jars, obviously as there is literally very less

investment in consumables. The Jars are bought just once & recycled again & again.

But the number of jars sold is less. Also the Jar handling work involved.

Compared to that, Pouch & bottle does not have a repeat , re-working job.

So, again it depends upon your market-mix.

3. Space Required

Comparison on the Basis of “Space Required”

Sr No Description Space Require in Sqft

1. Bottle + Jar + Pouch Plant 3000 sqft

2. 20 Ltr Jar 2000 sqft

3. 200 ml Pouch 2000 sqft


Yes, this can be a very important factor to consider, especially for cities like Mumbai,

where Space has highest cost.

4. Power Required


Comparison on the Basis of “Power Required”

Sr No Description Power required in hp

1. Bottle + Jar + Pouch Plant 63 hp

2. 20 Ltr Jar 15 hp

3. 200 ml Pouch 15 hp


� The Bottle + Jar + Pouch Plant needs maximum Power due to the power needed

for Blowing Machine

� Blowing Machine alone needs around 40 HP out of the 63 HP needed.

� If you decide to buy bottles from outside source , it may reduce considerably ,

but the profit margins will drop as well.

From this Analysis you can decide which type of plant to start. However, the

market demand factor will be very important & crucial . If you want little more

information on the cost of production.
