ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Council of Research in Water Resources (PCRWR) has removed Aab’e Dubai from the list of unsafe mineral water brands.
Director General PCRWR Dr Hafsa Rasheed issued on Sunday an explanation after a news was published regarding substandard status of 27 brands of mineral water.
The DG PCRWR said Aab’e Dubai mineral water was declared unsafe in the fourth quarter of 2024 due to excess sodium levels contrary to PSQCA standards.
However, she said samples from the Karachi production site came out as per the standards, on which Aab’e Dubai was removed from the list of unsafe brands.
She said public safety is ensured by testing the brands that are not up to the standards of PSQCA. Detailed report is available on the PCRWR website, she informed.
