Acqua Plose
natural spring water is one of the purest waters in the
world and bottled without any treatment or other
human intervention.
When looking
for a cap for their mineral water, Acqua Plose chose
closurelogic aluminum caps with TPE cap liners to
ensure that the taste of Plose bottled water is just as
natural as when it flows from the spring high up in the
Dolomite Mountains of Northern Italy.
