Environment protection and health care are two rising industries in the twenty-first century. Now clean water has become the shortest resources in the world; while China, as a country with poor water resource, not only is in the embarrassment of water shortage but also suffers a lot from water pollution. Seven major water bodies and main lakes are badly polluted. 90% of the rivers flowing through cites fail to meet the drinking water standard and 75% lakes are of rich nutrition. Most Chinese citizens take tap water as their drinking source. But with the deterioration of the pollution, tap water can hardly meet the healthy standard of drinking water. Therefore, great potential lies in China drinking water market. It is estimated that in the next few years, China has a market capacity of $6 billion Dollars per year towards drinking water.

In the early nineties last century, the second drinking water revolution marked by bottled drinking water appeared in China, secretly but definitely challenging the traditional drinking source of tap water. With people's increasing attention to water quality, another two important sources, terminal tap water maker and pipe direct-drink water, emerged gradually to share the drinking water market.

China drinking water industry, so called golden industry, increased more than 20% year on year from 2000-2005. Ever since 2000, drinking water has got so good a popularity from Chinese customers that it gets the first place in its output among the soft drink varieties. It is now the symbol of healthy, clean and pure drink that can well satisfy people's thirst.
