New Drive in Mecca to Ensure Zamzam Water Purity
The authority in charge distributes 12,090 refrigerated containers and 4,556 non-refrigerated containers throughout the Grand Mosque, in addition to providing over 3 million cups, as reported by the Saudi Press Agency (SPA).
The authority’s laboratory department verifies the quality and safety of Zamzam water by collecting 15 samples for laboratory testing using the latest devices and techniques in water analysis.
The process aims to achieve the highest levels of quality and safety, ensuring that Zamzam water is provided to Umrah performers and worshippers at the Grand Mosque.
The Zamzam water goes to the worshippers at the Grand Mosque and the Prophet’s Mosque in Medina through several stages, taking into consideration the highest standards to preserve its quality, ensuring it reaches them in the best condition.
The Zamzam well is located in Mecca al-Mukarramah, 21 meters east of Kaaba. It has an ancient history dating back to thousands of years.
