Summit Spring Unveils Raw Water
Comes in one litre glass bottle
Summit Spring, the bottled water company based in Harrison, Maine, has launched Raw Water, spring water to be bottled directly from the source without any filtration, treatment, pumps or boreholes used in the process, reported BevNet.
Bevnet quoted N. Bryan Pullen, president of Summit Spring Water, saying: “It’s not every day that the little guy gets to make such a big step. The fact that the State of Maine will allow this product on the market, with absolutely no filtration, is unprecedented and speaks to the sanctity of our historic source.”
The company collects its water from one of the oldest and natural free-flowing springs in North America.
The company claims that this new product, Raw Water, is nutrient rich; “living” spring water, containing essential minerals and gravity fed straight into a clear glass one litre bottle. The glass bottle is immediately placed into a recycled-content brown paper bag lined with wax, to protect it from the damage caused by sunlight, thus preserving the taste and clarity of the water inside.
Mr Pullen remarks: “There are naturally occurring nutrients in ‘living’ spring water, such as microscopic algae, potassium, sodium, magnesium and calcium that are routinely being stripped out of bottled water through treatment, reverse osmosis and filtration. When water comes straight from the ground it has nourishing qualities that are not present in purified and treated water. The centuries old reputation of Summit Spring water as a ‘healing tonic’, in addition to extensive and continuous analysis allowed the regulatory agencies to give this unprecedented approval.”
