IMPORTANT NOTICE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MANUAL BOTTLING PHASED OUT
To all intending bottle water producers, NAFDAC had henceforth nullified the use of manual operation in bottle water production. Thus, all producers must have either Full Auto Bottle Machine or Semi auto Bottling Machine (which must include Corking Machine).
This need arises to prevent human contact with the bottle water produce except in the area of labelling and shrink wrapping. This may not be unconnected with the recent public outcry about the quality of the bottle water being produced in the country.
In light of this, no more manual washing, filling and corking operations in bottle water production.

@abikun

Soda ash is good but makes water to taste like boiled water. Calcite gives water a better taste than soda ash.

Am talking from experience. I have used soda ash to boost pH of over 8 pure water factories and they still in operation till today without any complaint. I am speaking from experience. Thanks.

Please can u help on how to get calcite/corrosex or others and how to apply it. Thank you

Soda ash is the best bet to increase the ph of your water. Its application will depend on the volume of your raw tank. Contact me for more details.

Oduok:
In as much as I apprciate the OP's effort, I must say this post look more like an academic excercise than a practical approach to product registration. A lot people into business or going into business would want to know the basic (minimum requirement) of registrating a cottage industry. I keep seeing big names, big portfolio here - like what we learnt in the university that has no use to an average Nigerian that wants to do a legal business. Having said that: while in school I built a room, parlour kitchen, toilet (mini flat) with a space behind to make shade and want to use it to as a produce household products (liquid detergent, laundary soap, air freshener, bleach, aftershave). I've just come back from NYSC and want to legalize these products. I've registered my business name with CAC. I went to NAFDAC and someone there mentioned trademark (which said would assist for a fee of N40,000). And also was told NAFDAC registration is product by product which from my estimation would not be less than N50,000 per product. And was told of standard equipment. As an Engineering graduate I know you can produce standard bench scale products with readily available vessels. I have a degree in Chemical Engineering, Diploma in Safety Engineering, and Certificate in Cosmetology, Certificate in Entrepreneurship. I really want my bench scale products to be fully registered but all I see including this thread is some big names like Limited Liability Company, Production Manager, all those requirement that scare away young entrepreneurs. Sure I have a production manager (ND holder, Elect/Elect) and Company Secretray (B.A. - English) - though I can't really pay them well for now due to abnoxious requirement to start business. Please is there no hope for young entrepreneurs?

Thanks for the comment. Please you can register your product with enterprises or ventures and not only limited liability. And no where did I stated that you need secretary. The main staff NAFDAC usually requires are MD and PM. Also if you need info on requirements for cottage industry I send it to you.
