PLANT LAYOUT
The subject plant layout refers to the arrangement of machinery, equipment and other industrial facilities such as receiving and shipping departments, tool rooms, maintenance rooms and employee amenities for the purpose of achieving the quickest and smoothest production at the least cost. Bisleri plant at Ghaziabad has two different plants where the complete production takes place. In the one plant the cap and the bottle performs are manufactured and the other plant has the place for performs to be blown into bottles and the filling of the bottles is done. This building also has the purification process of the water which has to be filled. An ideal plant location may not be enough by itself to ensure the success of the enterprise but it surely ensures the smooth running of a factory and makes it efficient a bad location on the other hand is severe handicap and it is very and may finally bankrupt the organisation. The need for selection of the location may arise when a business is started or for the purpose of expansion or for opening branches etc.

REVERSE OSMOSIS: This stage of reserve osmosis system controls and dissolves the leftover Particles and it converts hard water into soft water. MICRON FILTERATION: Under this stage of micro filtration additional safety measures are taken to guarantee purity of water. ADDED MINERALS: In this stage addition of mineral magnesium sulphate and potassium bicarbonate is processed. FINAL OZONISATION: The ozone treatment increases the shelf life of water. To ensure mineral water is held safe free from contamination, ultraviolet treatment and ozonisation process is carried out. Ozone is unstable trivalent oxygen, a very powerful bactericide with no side effect, as it disintegrates into oxygen within couple of hours. Sterilization effect of ozonized water continues even after water is packaged, thereby ensuring safety of Mineral Water up to its final packing. To ensure high quality of packing materials, components like caps and bottles are manufactured in-house from resins of quality suppliers.

FINAL PRODUCT: After going through all the departments like filling department, blowing, ,grinding department the bottle is finally ready and it moves to the packaging department.

OUTPUT:
The final output of the whole manufacturing process is the clean pure drinking water in the bottles of different sizes according to the needs of the consumer.

To drive inside the campus vehicle speed limit should be 10Km/ ph Bisleri water is provided to the employees for drinking purpose. Bisleri is the first company to increase its products in packaged drinking water ranging from 500ml to 20 ltrs. Bisleri should introduce new packaging of bottle. Workers should be provided with mouth pieces to ensure hygiene during production Proper storage of scrap Have more systematic approach towards security of the plant.
