Packagingmaterials6

The life cycle stage “Packagingmaterials” includes thepackaging rawmaterials production, the forming processes of packaging, and thetransportofmaterialstowaterfactory.Transportationofusedemptyrefillable containers back to water factory is included in the stage“Packagingmaterials7”.

Manufacturing The life cycle stage “Manufacturing” includes the steps of waterextraction, containers filling and grouping, gas production forcarbonatedwaterandwashingandsterilizationofrefillablecontainers.The life cycle stage “Manufacturing” includes the energy and waterconsumptionoftheentirewaterfactory,i.e.itincludestheenergyandwater consumption of the different facilities and activities on waterfactory site (e.g. air conditioning, heating, washing of the lines, lossrates). Those additional consumptions canbe added in the sub-stage“Waterextraction,fillingandgrouping”.

Distribution Thelifecyclestage“Distribution”includesthedifferenttransportstepsfordistribution,aswellasstorageinwarehousesandretailer(onlyfor“Otherchannels”subcategory).

Use Thelifecyclestage“Use”includesthechillingoperationsatfinaluser,thegasemissionsofcarbonatedwater,butalsoglassandplasticcup(ifany)productionandend-of-lifeanddishwashing.
