Antimony is a metal that is used in the manufacturing process for PET and there is an EU maximum permitted level for antimony in drinking water of 5 ppb. Occasionally, there are reports of antimony being found in bottled water but the levels are always considerably below those permitted for drinking water and so there is no reason for concern.
