FAQ
Source & Origin
Q: Is Icelandic Glacial truly from Iceland?
A: Yes! Our water is sourced from the Ölfus Spring on Iceland’s southwest coast. Naturally filtered through ancient lava rock, it is bottled at the source without artificial treatment, ensuring purity, a refreshing taste, and a naturally balanced mineral profile.
Q: Does the water actually come from glaciers?
A: The name is inspired by Iceland’s majestic glaciers, but our water comes from the Ölfus natural spring. Abundant rainfall and glacial meltwater are naturally filtered through volcanic rock, creating this pristine water source.
Water Quality & Characteristics
Q: Is it alkaline water? What is the pH level?
A: Icelandic Glacial has a natural pH of 8.4, making it naturally alkaline. Unlike waters adjusted with added minerals, our alkalinity comes entirely from natural volcanic filtration.
Q: What is the TDS (Total Dissolved Solids)?
A: TDS is 62 ppm, considered the “golden balance” of minerals. It contains beneficial elements such as calcium and magnesium while maintaining a clean, crisp taste without excessive mineral heaviness.
Q: Are there any additives?
A: None. Our water contains only naturally occurring minerals (calcium, magnesium, sodium) and is free from fluoride, artificial additives, or harmful chemicals.
