Nongfu Spring water is one of the leading brands for natural mineral water in China. Drawn from natural water springs in various parts of the country, Nongfu Spring's bottled water is one of the most well known on the domestic market. It held a 22% market share in China's competitive bottled water segment in 2013. In addition to the regular 380ml, 550ml and 1.51 PET bottle formats, the company's bottled water is also available in a 41 family size, which, until recently, was only available in High Density Polyethylene (HDPE). This was the starting point for its challenge to align the production of its bottles across the range, by switching from HDPE to PET for its largest bottle size. The company turned to Sidel to provide a packaging solution. Early in 2014 Sidel supplied the 41 PET bottle to Nongfu Spring, which runs at 14,000bph. This makes it the fastest-ever Combi water line.
