publicly acknowledged that it had used banned treatments (ultraviolet and activated carbon) in the past, then replaced them with a \u201c0.2 micron cartridge\u201d microfiltration system, which it

at the site, in 2022, to produce its new \u201cMaison Perrier\u201d brand, a drink sold without the \u201cnatural mineral water\u201d label.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a press release issued on Wednesday, the
