Mintel consumer analyst Amanda Lintott said: 'Health is a key driver behind the rising sales of bottled water, either because they [consumers] want to follow a healthier daily eating pattern or because they wish to maintain their fluid intake as part of a weight-reducing regime.'
Bottled water sales reached£1.57 billion last year, with an 8 per cent rise this year. Mintel expects the product line to reach£2.03 billion by 2010.
