Investor Quick-Reference

Questions fréquemment posées

1. What capacity should I start with?

New entrants often begin at 6,000–12,000 BPH (500 ml) to balance cost and market reach; scale later with a Bloc combiné.

2. Mineral, spring or purified water?

Purified (RO-treated) is easiest and cheapest to permit; mineral/spring needs a protected source and stricter claims. Your ligne de production d'eau design follows the choice.

3. Do I need water treatment?

Almost always — RO/UV at minimum for purified; source testing decides for spring/mineral. Skimping here fails audits.

4. PET or glass?

PET dominates for cost and weight; glass for premium. PET lines are faster and cheaper per bottle on a Machine de remplissage.

5. How much does a line cost?

Wide range by capacity and automation; request a TCO model, not just sticker price (see the TCO guide).

6. Quels permis sont nécessaires ?

Food-facility registration, water source approval, labelling compliance and often SONCAP/PVoC/EAC depending on market.

7. How long to set up?

Typically 4–8 months from order to production including shipping, install and commissioning.

8. What is a monoblock vs combiblock?

Monoblock links rinser-filler-capper; combiblock adds blow molding for a shorter, cleaner path.

9. How do I control bacteria?

Validated CIP, sanitized caps, closed transfer and regular water testing.

10. What BPH do I need for my market?

Estimate local daily demand ÷ operating days, then add headroom; undersizing caps growth.

11. Can I add juice or CSD later?

Yes with separate Bloc combiné modules; plan utilities and footprint for multi-SKU now.

12. How much floor space?

A 12,000 BPH line needs roughly 400–600 m² including warehouse; combiblock saves space.

13. What power/water utilities?

Stable 3-phase power and a reliable water source; size backups for outages.

14. How do I pick a supplier?

Check certificates (CE/ISO/SGS), reference plants and after-sales; audit the factory before paying.

15. What is the payback?

Varies by market margin; model break-even on volume and price before committing CapEx.
