The journey of our pristine water begins in Antarctica, where powerful gale force winds transform ice crystals into water vapor. Carried by high-speed jet-stream winds, this moisture eventually reaches the shores of New Zealand.

The result is water that collects 1000 feet below the earth's surface in an artesian aquifer that has been in existence for 1800 years.

This water, and its unparalleled purity is carefully captured and sealed in a bottle, all without ever being exposed to air or sunlight.

pH

A healthy human body has a pH of 7.4. Our artesian mineral water has a pH of 7.2, making it ideal for providing optimal hydration.

HARDNESS

The hardness of water is measured by the calcium and magnesium content. The hardness of our water is 13 mg/l which makes it one of the softest waters in the world, 20 times softer than the leading French bottled water brand.

PURITY

The nitrate level of water provides an indication of potential contamination. With a very low nitrate level of 0.061 mg/l, the purity of our water is considered to be superior by international standards.

Our water compared to others

Silica

Silica is the common name given to silicone dioxide (SiO2) which is naturally occurring as quartz and is a major component in sand in most parts of the world.

Silica helps support bone health in humans and as well as being important for the creation and maintenance of connective tissue. Regular consumption of silica supplements have shown positive effects on the strength and condition of skin, hair, and nails by preventing brittleness.

Medical research has identified that consumption of 10 mg/ day of silica enhances the excretion of aluminium from the body. Aluminium toxicity has been linked with Alzheimers, Parkinsons, Multiple Sclerosis and chronic fatigue. It has become standard practice in parts of Europe to administer high silica mineral water to patients suffering from these degenerative diseases to help improve their cognitive function.
The water from the Whale Islands, in Bay of Plenty, New Zealand contains natural silica levels of 89mg / litre which means that consuming a couple of glasses of this water every day may help to protect your long term cognitive performance.
