<p>The Kano State Chapter of the Association of Table Water Producers (ATWAP) has officially announced an upward review of the price of sachet water (popularly known as &#8220;pure water&#8221;) across the state.</p><div class="aHsr38Hp" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>This decision is a direct response to the unsustainable surge in the cost of production materials.</p>
<p>In a statement representing the association, it was disclosed that the price of a bag of sachet water, which was previously sold at N220, has now been adjusted to a minimum of 300 Naira.</p>
<p>This adjustment is necessary to prevent the collapse of the industry, as the cost of essential production materials has increased by two-thirds.</p>

</div>

<p>&#8211; Printing Film: The price has risen to 3,700 Naira.<br />
&#8211; Gas/Fuel: Prices have reached 1,500 Naira per liter.<br />
&#8211; Power Supply: The lack of stable electricity has forced factories to rely entirely on expensive generator power.</p>
<p>Despite these financial pressures, the Chairman, Alhaji Ahmad Bala Hudu, has issued a stern warning to all producers against compromising water quality.</p>
<p>The association emphasizes that:<br />
&#8211; Reverse Osmosis (RO) systems and water purification standards must be strictly maintained.<br />
&#8211; The association is working in collaboration with health authorities to inspect factories.<br />
&#8211; Any producer found bypassing health standards will be handed over to the appropriate law enforcement agencies.</p>
<p>The association appeals to the public for understanding and patience during this period, particularly as we are in the holy month of Ramadan.</p>
<p>In a statement issued to newsmen, Anas Idris Hassan, the Public Relations Officer of the association, said the price review is a last-resort measure to ensure that safe drinking water remains available in the state.</p>
