This depends largely on the production techoclogy and the product. Also teh size of production facilities may vary enormously from a kind of backyard semi-industrialized workshop to factories that encompass square kilometers of land and buildings. Pharmaceutical factories avoid to use much water for cleaning whereas fresh food processing facilities may use tons of water only for cleaning. A mineral water bottling facility uses between 2 and 3 times the amount of bottled water for the total of production. These industries are heavily involved in recycling their own water consumption, as they may have a huge impact on the local water supply and subsequently have high water consumption bills. You may look at sustainability reports of large food processing companies to get an idea of averages.
