Sparkling water will be out of stock soon – that’s what’s happening

This news is really causing a sensation especially in this last period: reference is made to the drastic reduction of sparkling water on the market and in fact it is said that it will soon no longer be available in the various stores. Let’s see what happens. This sudden stop of the production lines of gaseous products is mainly due to the lack of carbon dioxide and the main problem is that the companies that produce the CO2 prefer to allocate it exclusively to the health sector and therefore, consequently, the water carbonated may end very soon.

But this is by no means the only problem manufacturers have to deal with. Not only has Co2 become totally unobtainable, but we must add to this the record rise in the price of raw materials and the drought which is really depleting all sources. The difficulty in finding carbon dioxide had already occurred last year for the food sector, but certainly not in such large quantities and in fact the industries were still able to buffer themselves. The current situation presents itself rather as a real emergency, which affects all European producers.

The stocks of sparkling water in the warehouses of all supermarkets are now starting to run out badly and most of the sparkling water found in Italy is mainly made up of mineral water and then added carbon dioxide by a process called carbonation. Unfortunately therefore, very soon there may be no more packaged sparkling water on the supermarket shelves and the fault for all this must certainly be attributed to the energy crisis, which is likely to affect this sector as well .

In fact, the short circuit could not only affect the production of bubble water, but even the whole food sector, such as confectionery production, since this sub-sector also needs the added gas for food preparation. most popular with consumers. For the moment, to try to remedy the situation, the producers are however waiting for supplies from abroad, but it is obvious that this will in no way solve the situation.

The problem, however, is that most producers, in general, do not keep large quantities of ready-to-market products in their warehouse, since the packaging begins immediately after the bottling phase and then ends up directly at the final points of sale. to be purchased by consumers. So be careful, because the sparkling water that’s on sale right now might be all we have.
