Have you ever wondered how Malta’s tap water stacks up against other countries? Let’s take a look at how our water quality and taste compare globally:
Safer Than Many European Countries – Malta meets the highest EU drinking water standards, ranking among the top 20 nations for safety, ahead of several larger countries.
Reverse Osmosis Advantage – Unlike many countries that rely on groundwater or reservoirs, Malta produces most of its tap water through advanced reverse osmosis, ensuring a cleaner and more controlled supply.
Lower Mineral Content Than Hard Water Regions – Countries like the UK and Italy often have ‘hard water’ due to high mineral content. Malta’s improvements have achieved a balanced mineral composition while reducing chlorides and chlorine for better taste.
Better Than Bottled Water? – Many bottled waters originate from sources with similar or even lower treatment standards than tap water. With Malta’s latest upgrades and the option of activated carbon filters, tap water is now a fresher, eco-friendly alternative!
Reducing Plastic Waste Like Scandinavian Countries – In places like Norway and Sweden, drinking tap water is the norm, drastically reducing plastic bottle usage. With Malta’s improved supply, we can follow their example and cut unnecessary plastic waste.
Malta’s tap water has come a long way. With great taste and top-tier safety, there’s never been a better time to turn on the tap and enjoy!
