NÜWATER is sourced from an artesian spring 500 meters underground, one of the deepest springs in the world. Filtered through rich volcanic rock, NÜWATER supplies the body with essential minerals for life. In comparison to desalinated water - a process that is highly energy intensive, removes all the minerals and produces toxic waste in the process.
