The French consumer rights group Foodwatch has filed two new complaints against Nestlé and Alma alleging unlawful practices in the purification of their bottled water. It's seeking to have the multinationals held accountable for decades of "fraudulent" actions.
The complaints, submitted on Wednesday in Paris, target Nestlé Waters for using illegal processing methods – including UV disinfection and activated carbon filters – on its bottled water brands Perrier, Vittel, Hépar and Contrex.
