MAKARIM WATER FACTORY – 5 GALLON, 600 BARRELS/HOUR

High-Capacity 5-Gallon Water Production Line for Makarim Water Factory, Al-Qassim, Saudi Arabia

This project involved the installation of a high-capacity 5-gallon water production line at Makarim Water Factory in Al-Qassim, Saudi Arabia. With a production capacity of 600 barrels per hour, the system was designed to support efficient high-volume production of 5-gallon water containers while maintaining consistent quality and operational reliability.

The Challenge

Makarim Water Factory required a dedicated 5-gallon production solution capable of handling high production volumes efficiently.

The facility needed a system that could streamline the various stages of 5-gallon water production while reducing manual intervention and maintaining consistent processing standards. The line also needed to provide reliable performance for continuous commercial-scale production.

Our Solution

Wellbing supplied and installed a high-capacity 5-gallon water production line with a capacity of 600 barrels per hour.

The solution was designed to provide an efficient production flow, integrating automated equipment across the key stages of the 5-gallon water processing cycle.

Key visible features and components:

  • 5-gallon bottle handling system: Designed for efficient movement and processing of large water containers.
  • Automated washing and rinsing: Supports effective cleaning and preparation of reusable containers.
  • High-capacity filling system: Provides efficient and consistent water filling.
  • Capping system: Ensures secure sealing of filled containers.
  • Conveyor system: Facilitates smooth transfer between production stages.
  • Integrated controls: Supports monitoring and efficient operation of the production process.

Implementation Process

The production line was installed in 2025, with the equipment arranged to provide a streamlined production workflow.

The process involves:

  • Empty 5-gallon containers entering the production line.
  • Containers undergoing cleaning and preparation.
  • Automated filling of the containers with processed water.
  • Secure capping of filled containers.
  • Conveying the finished containers toward the final handling and distribution stages.

The installation was structured to support smooth material flow and efficient high-volume operation.
