SPANIARDS spend an average of €62 per year on bottled water.

According to a study presented by AIS Group and the Sustainability Observatory, together with Esri España for the Day of Water in Data, people in Spain spend around €62 per year on bottled water.

Although it is not a huge expenditure as part of a family budget, representing on average just 0.10 per cent of their spending, the data is useful for studying the quality of water in Spain.

The average spent on water has hardly varied between 2015 and 2019 according to the study, which was published by Inforetail.

The provinces where most is spent per year on average in Spain, with between €120 and €140 per year, are Tenerife, Las Palmas and the Balearic Islands.
