PURITY AND QUALITY

pH is a chemistry term to define and quantify the the amount of hydrogen ions.  It actually means “the power of Hydrogen.” Substances with a pH level less than 7 are considered acidic, while substances with a pH level greater than 7 are considered alkaline.

Numerous medical experts agree that increasing your alkaline intake with healthy foods and water is one of the best things you can for your health and well being.  This relationship between your pH level and your oxygen intake can have a dramatic effect on preventing illness and disease.  A boost in your pH levels boosts your body’s oxygen intake, and, as a general rule, pathogens do not survive in an oxygen-rich, alkaline environment.

This is one of the reasons we feel so revived when bathing in sea water.  Sea water has roughly the same trace elements and minerals as, and closely matches, human plasma.   The healing benefits of the sea and its relatively neutral pH have been touted for centuries — but naturally we can’t drink this water.   Tap water is relatively neutral at 7.0, but  choosing a higher pH drinking water, such as California Artesian Water™, helps with the desired health benefits.

PURIFIED WATER may come from any source.  It has been treated by distillation, deionization, reverse osmosis, or carbon filtration, which removes common chemicals or contaminants.  This process also removes many beneficial minerals as well. 

California Artesian Water™ is sourced from a single, pristine granite aquifer located at 7,000 feet above sea level in the Sierra Nevada Mountains.   This water is untouched by mankind before reaching our consumers,  and is absolutely perfect in its natural form, the way nature intended it to be.

The California Artesian Water™ team is deeply and passionately committed to developing an innovative supply, production, and distribution model that minimizes environmental impact while providing the consumer with an exceptional product.

A leading comparable bottle of artesian water requires 250g of CO2 per bottle.  California Artesian Water™ only requires 6.9g of CO2 per bottle.

First, our efforts to minimize CO2 begin at our production facility where the natural pressure of our artesian aquifer gently propels water upwards into our stainless steel storage tank. This process occurs without the use electricity and is carbon neutral and completely sustainable.   Because the aquifer is artesian, we only receive and collect the excess water, allowing the aquifer to remain full and in balance with the environment.

Second, we utilize existing local partners to minimize the carbon released during the transportation of our packaging. Currently, 90% of our packaging originates within 120 miles of our facility.

Finally, we are constantly engaged in seeking innovative ways to reduce the impact of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles. Even though our current bottle is 100% recyclable and reusable, we will be phasing those bottles out and phasing in recycled (rPET) bottles following the completion of our minimum viable product (MVP) period.

We look forward to continually developing an exceptional product that reflects our values of innovation and sustainability.
