Deep Seawater's Products's picture

At depths of over 200m, seawater is extremely cold, full of nutrients, and largely free of microorganisms. A facility in Muroto has harnessed this valuable water, pumping from 320m below the sea surface. This water is used for various health-products ranging from health and beauty products to food and beverages. A spa resort has also been built, with an adjacent public bath.
