LCVP 6th yr visit to Ballygowan Water, Newcastle West, Co. Limerick

September 22nd

On the 22nd September 2014, the Leaving Cert students visited Ballygowan Water as part of their LCVP portfolio. They were met by Trish Bridgeman, Manager and Paul McMahon, Team Leader. Paul gave a very detailed and insight presentation followed by a very interesting tour of the factory. We saw how water bottles were ‘exploded’ to size, water was bottled, labelled, wrapped and placed onto pallets.

A minimum 24,000 bottles of water can be bottled in an hour from one production line. We had a great visit and the students have plenty of information for their project work.

Have a look through the Gallery of some photos from the tour:
