About natural water

cpc code 1800 covers the industry of natural water extraction and distribution. This is a vital sector that provides a fundamental resource for human consumption, industrial processes, and agricultural activities. Natural water is an essential input across a wide range of economic activities, making this industry a crucial component of the broader economy.

Production process

The production of natural water primarily involves the extraction of groundwater or surface water sources, such as lakes, rivers, and springs. This water is then processed to remove impurities and ensure it meets quality standards for safe consumption or industrial use. Key steps in the production process include pumping, filtration, disinfection, and storage before distribution through pipelines or other transportation methods.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the natural water industry include the water sources themselves, as well as the infrastructure and equipment necessary for extraction, treatment, and distribution. This includes pumps, filtration systems, disinfection equipment, and the pipelines or other transportation networks used to deliver the water to end-users. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce to operate and maintain the production and distribution systems.

Production outputs

The primary output of the natural water industry is, of course, the clean, potable water that is delivered to households, businesses, and other consumers. This water is then used for a wide range of purposes, including 2000 Food and beverage manufacturing, 3000 Manufacturing, 4000 Utilities, and 5000 Agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting.
