- Food and drink
Carola spring water is drawn in Ribeauvillé, in the Parc naturel régional des Ballons des Vosges. Sourced from more than 150 metres underground, this groundwater is naturally pure and drinkable. Its quality is preserved by the geology of the catchment area, including rock and clay, which provides natural protection. The “CAROLA Aromatisée” range is an alternative to conventional soft drinks, with 0% sugar and 100% natural flavours.

Its features
Recycled and recyclable plastic bottle
The bottle is made of 100% recyclable PET containing at least 25% recycled material, reducing the use of virgin plastic derived from oil.
Natural spring water without treatment
Carola spring water is naturally drinkable. Coming from deep underground, it is naturally protected and filtered below ground, unlike tap water described as surface water, from lakes, rivers or groundwater, which requires treatment before it can be consumed.
Protecting water resources and managing the aquifer sustainably
Carola works to preserve water resources over the long term by limiting its withdrawals to 10% of the aquifer’s naturally renewable volume, a threshold half the level recommended by the European Environment Agency. The company also optimises water consumption at its bottling site, one of the most efficient in the world, using only 1.2 L of water to produce 1 L of bottled water.
100% natural flavours for more responsible consumption
The CAROLA flavoured spring water range uses 100% natural flavours and contains no sugar. This recipe takes a more responsible approach by choosing simple, natural ingredients, thereby limiting processing and environmental impact.
Recoverable components
The bottle and its cap are recyclable materials which, once shredded, become new plastic products such as new bottles, furniture or textile fibres.
