Zamzam water goes through multiple stages from its emergence from the well located in the Grand Mosque in Makkah al-Mukarramah City in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, until it reaches the beneficiaries among pilgrims, visitors, and Umrah performers. These stages are:

. Extraction from the well via two large pumps with a capacity of 360 m³ per hour.

. Transporting the extracted water from the two pumps through water transmission lines made of (stainless steel), reaching a length of four km.

. Storing Zamzam water in tanks, each with a capacity of five thousand m³.

. Transferring the water to a dedicated purification and filtration plant to produce highly sterilized and pure water.

. Transferring the water to Kudi tanks, King Abdulaziz Sabil tanks, and production plant tanks to fill Zamzam water into containers, each with a capacity of five l.

. Filling Zamzam tankers for the Prophet's Mosque from King Abdulaziz Sabil tanks.

. Diverting water from Kudi tanks to Zamzam cooling stations around the Grand Mosque.

. Distributing water to filling points of drinking fountains and containers designated for Zamzam in the Grand Mosque.

. Sterilization and treatment, where each of the main stages is preceded by sampling and analysis of Zamzam water to ensure its specifications and properties.
