Water

Imported from the pristine mountains of Iceland, Iceland Spring is the purest bottled water available in today’s market. The comparative remoteness of Iceland, its lack of intensive agriculture and heavy industry, and its system of tides and winds that protect from weather born pollutants resulting in a fresh and pure water that cannot be found anywhere else.

Why is Iceland Spring Water Better?

• Originality: There are no other competing Icelandic spring water companies.
• Clarity: Iceland is one of the cleanest places on earth.
• Purity: It really does taste good, because it is clean.
• Content: It is naturally filtered through lava rock which creates a good mineral content.

How pure is Iceland Spring Water?
At 58 mg per liter TDS (total dissolved solids), it is the lowest of the major leading imports*

• Iceland Spring 58
• Evian 309
• Volvic 109
• Vittel 403
• Fiji 160
• Crystal Geysir 590

The natural spring is situated on the outskirts of Reykjavík in a protected nature reserve called "Heidmörk". Over 150 acres around the source is closed from unauthorized entry and the entire park is fenced to keep out animals.

Iceland Spring originates in the mountains high above Heidmörk as rain or snow. Through inert layers of lava rock, it trickles deep into the ground, picking up a minimum amount of soluble minerals. The water then collects in a large underground river running under the reserve´s lava soil, and surfaces in intermittent springs.

The location has been carefully selected for its’ isolation, soil material, amount of precipitation and permeability, to ensure product quality and consistency. A borehole was sunk on a hill above the spring to tap the water at depth, which then runs through a private stainless steel pipeline from the spring directly to the bottling plant.

“An Assesment of the Quality of Iceland Spring Bottled Water” – Dr. Richard Maas, P.h.D. Co-Director, University of North Carolina – Asheville, Environmental Quality Institute July 15th 2004: “Compared to over 45 bottled waters* previously studied by the Environmental Quality Institute in overall quality we have found none better than Iceland Spring.”
