Giving Consumers A Voice

Bottled Water Matters is a coalition formed in 2007 by the International Bottled Water Association.

We give bottled water consumers a voice to share their ideas about bottled water safety, healthy beverage choices and commitment to recycling. This coalition is a channel to communicate with fellow bottled water drinkers, lawmakers and regulators, media, and others.

Please spend some time browsing our Web site and join us in speaking out to ensure that bottled water choice is not burdened by onerous measures such as punitive taxes or other obstacles. Links that will provide you with factual information about one of America's most reliable industries can be found at the right. You can take action by clicking the tab above and sending a letter to your elected officials.

When consumers want a safe, healthy, refreshing, good-tasting beverage at home, at the office or on-the-go, they choose bottled water.
