Armenia’s Food Safety Inspection Body (FSIB) has found no deviations in Jermuk mineral water, with all tested indicators meeting the standards established by the Eurasian Economic Union’s technical regulations. This was stated by FSIB spokesperson Anush Harutyunyan.
According to her, the agency conducted sampling during the previous suspension period, both within the retail distribution network and during the production process.
“The results of inspections carried out jointly with Russian colleagues at agricultural and fish-farming enterprises between May 21 and May 27 have not yet been finalized,” she said.
Earlier, it became known that Russia’s Rospotrebnadzor had ordered the suspension of sales of 64.5 million bottles of Armenian-produced Jermuk mineral water.
According to Rospotrebnadzor, the decision was based on the manufacturer’s alleged violations of technical regulations. Specifically, the water was found to contain levels of bicarbonate ions, chlorides and sulfates exceeding permissible limits.
