ramona's pure drinking water process has
been certified by leading global
certification bodies for quality
standards the company's commitments to
Quality Assurance is reflected in its
production methods for instance Ramana
has instituted a stringent purification
process that encompasses several
diligence steps one receipt of raw water
from reliable source raw water is
received from the approved source in a
protected closed system
this water is frequently tested for
physical chemical bacteriological
parameters as per GCC standards in its
in-house lab equipped with the latest
testing equipments to bag filtration 5
micron this is a process that removes
any extraneous matter and contamination
in rural water through FDA compliant
filter bags in ss3 1 6l grade steel
filter housing made in the UK 3 storage
of raw water here raw water is stored in
GRP hot pressed insulated storage tanks
which are sealed leak free and approved
for storage of drinking water
for multimedia filtration in this stat
the water is put through multimedia
water filter system which represents a
significant improvements over single
media filters it permits delivery of
high-quality filtered water at much
faster rates as compared to a
conventional sand filter the filtration
vessel is made of ss 3 1 6l grade steel
5 activated carbon filtration then the
water is put through the activated
carbon filter which removes chlorine THM
s odor in the water etc the filtration
vessel is made of ss 3 1 6 l steel 6
micro filtration after activated carbon
filtration it will pass through 5 micron
filters and then it passes on to the
next step 7 reverse osmosis or D
mineralization process this process
purifies water by removing salts
contaminants and other impurities it's
also capable of rejecting bacteria the
membranes used in reverse osmosis plants
are from film Tech USA which is FDA US
Food and Drug Administration approved
the entire RO plant is made of stainless
steel
3 1 6 l the custom-made RO plant is
specially designed and executed
exclusively for Romana which is one of
its kind in UAE 8ro permeate storage
tank ro permeate is stored in
intermediate storage tank which is made
of stainless steel 3 1 6 L great steel
specially used in the food and farmer
industry 9 remineralization let's talk
about Ramona's initiative for good
health and premium quality drinking
water tere ro permeate water is
remineralized with a complete balanced
supply of selectively water-soluble food
grade minerals especially the world's
number one brand smirk which is directly
imported from Germany which is USF
usepa GCC w-h-o approved one of the
minerals dosed is magnesium which is a
natural tranquilizer and muscle relaxant
called the anti stress mineral it aids
in relaxing nerves relieving tension and
assisting digestion magnesium is also
involved in the formation of proteins
and DNA it's important for the
production and transfer of energy muscle
contraction and relaxation and nerve
conduction it also aids regularity is
necessary to keep vertebrae in their
proper position induces restful sleep
lowers fever and purifies and purges
body tissues combating acids toxins
gases impurities and neutralizing
poisons magnesium the most important
mineral needed by the body is stored in
the bowel nerves and ligaments to
function correctly and efficiently
your body needs many nutrients but if
it's deficient in magnesium over 300
biochemical reactions would occur very
inefficiently or would not occur at all
another mineral that Ramana doses is
calcium which is needed in every organ
of the body including the brain calcium
is called the litter because it promotes
healing or knitting everywhere in the
body it's valuable for tone power
strength longevity vitality endurance
healing of wounds neutralizing of acids
and assisting in regulating metabolism
because it's used in almost every
function calcium is commonly deficient
in our diets it's one of the first
elements to go out of balance when the
diet is inadequate calcium is stored in
the blood and teeth as well as in the
nerves muscles and tissues calcium
raises the body's resistance to viruses
parasites and bacteria lack of calcium
leads to a host of diseases and
degenerative conditions calcium is one
of the most essential of the major
elements needed in human nutrition
ten absolute filtration one micron in
this stage the water is processed
through absolute filtration one micron
which removes any traces of contaminants
during dosing of minerals the pore size
of absolute filtration is one micron
filtration processes monitored and
tested regularly 11 mineralized water
storage tank in this stage mineralized
water is stored in stainless steel three
one six our grade storage tank waters
monitored with ultrasonic sensors and
tested daily 12 final micron filter 0.2
micron here the water passes through
stainless steel german-made sartorius
filter cartridges which consists of 24
cartridges of 0.2 micron filter for a
high performance it a single layered
pleated cellulose acetate membrane
that's been specially developed for
pharma industry these cartridges
guarantee the highest biological product
safety in combination with enhanced
total throughout performance which
romana always guarantees to its
customers these cartridges are steam
sterilized every day before starting
production to ensure highest quality and
safety 13 ultraviolet sterilization UV
in this step the waters subjected to
ultraviolet sterilization which is a
fast and unique way to virtually
eliminate microbiological contaminants
including bacteria and viruses without
using heat or chemicals produced by
Hannah via from UK in this technology
water enters ultraviolet generator cell
and swirls around a low pressure mercury
vapour lamp which emits powerful
ultraviolet energy at 254 nm wavelength
bacteria viruses and other
microbiological organisms
absorb the light energy which disrupts
their DNA causing their destruction
14 ozone disinfection in this step the
water is given ozone disinfection
treatment which oxidizes organic matter
and inorganic compounds destroys viruses
bacteria and other pathogens ozone acts
by breaking down pathogenic cell tissue
and is a much more effective method than
chlorine indeed with only 0.4 ppm during
four minutes
ozone can eliminate bacteria viruses
molds and fungi ozone is a very unstable
compound with a very short lifespan
once it's done its job as disinfectant
it breaks down into oxygen ramana's
ozone plant is imported from Canada and
the brand name is Osso Tech similarly
for its 5 gallon returnable bottles
Romana has instituted a thorough
bottling and control process which is as
follows one first pre-inspection every
empty five-gallon bottle returning from
the market is subjected to thorough
inspection the pre inspection team
separates bottles with foreign particles
and sniffs the bottles for bad odor
dirty abused or cracked bottles that
cannot be cleaned or scrapped to
decapping machine bottles are then d
capped automatically by a pneumatic d
capper
three-second pre-inspection here every
bottle is subjected to thorough checks
again after decapping by highly trained
staff who are rotated every 15 to 20
minutes to ensure their alert and have
proper concentration during inspection
for high pressure hot water detergent
washer in this step if there is any
contaminated bottle they're rinsed
internally and externally with
high-pressure detergent jets at 70 to 80
degrees Celsius temperature five
external washer here empty bottles are
washed in an automatic washer using
high-pressure detergent jets automatic
controlled detergent dosing is done and
monitored every hour six world class
twenty six stations five-gallon bottle
washer which is specially custom
designed and engineered for ramana
ramana is the first company which has
imported the twenty six stage washer for
the first time in UAE hair after
external washer the bottles enter a
world class twenty six stations bottle
washer where it's washed rinsed and
sanitized this twenty six stations
bottle washer comprises of one free wash
bottles are cleaned externally and
internally with high-pressure water jets
it's about four times to hot detergent
wash hair bottles are cleaned externally
and internally with high-pressure hot
detergent jets this station is
maintained at 70 to 80 degrees Celsius
temperature by continuous supply of hot
steam it's about six times three water
rinse bottles are rinsed externally and
internally with high-pressure water jets
to prevent carryover of detergent it's
about five times for sanitizer wash
bottles are cleaned and sanitized
externally and internally with high
pressure sanitizer Jets it's about five
times 5 first OHS niced water rinse hair
bottles are rinsed externally and
internally with high-pressure ozone eyes
dois to Janet's to prevent carryover of
sanitizer and sanitize the bottle it's
about two times six final ionized water
wash bottles are finally washed and
rinsed externally and internally with
fresh ozonate water each bottle has
undergone 26 staged washing which keeps
the bottles in 100% sterile condition
prior to filling it's about four times
now each bottle is sterilized 26 times
assuring a hundred percent purity seven
filling and capping in the seventh step
after the final rinse the bottles
immediately go for filling and capping
in a pressurized filling chamber created
by sterile air from european hepa
filters which protects it from any
contamination it will go through the
automated capping machine which ensures
sealed and secured pure drinking water
filling nozzles are specially designed
to fill the bottles without touching the
bottles thereby preventing any
contamination eight date coding hair
capped bottles are coded with production
expiry date and time with indelible ink
using inkjet printer for proper
identification and traceability nine
sleeve application in this step tamper
evident sleeve is applied on the caps
for more security and preventing
tampering with the water ten final
inspection finally the product bottles
undergo final inspection by a trained
staff and are then loaded in racks
before going to the stores
let's have a look at our pet line
production five gallon reusable three
gallon two gallon five liter 1.5 liter
500 mil Ramona has come out with an
innovative range of products designed to
fulfill customers diverse drinking water
requirements for example
Romana's two three and five gallons
polyethylene terephthalate pet
disposable bottles are the only one of
their kind in the UAE today and to
achieve this high quality standard we
use fury' fied air to blow the preforms
using gardener compression which is from
the UK with a unique feature of being
100% oil free once the preforms are
blown to desired size it goes through an
enclosed conveyor for washing filling
and capping
the revolutionary new five-gallon pet is
non-reusable which means all such
bottles have not been touched nor used
and are filled straight postproduction
