The Source for Fine Waters
Iceberg water is a very unique product, in a category all by itself. It is an all natural, truly virginal water with almost no trace of minerals. This water's journey started over 15,000 years ago in the ancient glaciers of western Greenland. It has been safely stored in the ice cap, protected by the ocean and the hazardous conditions of the arctic weather.
Isolation has made its source totally inaccessible to man. It is not until massive pieces of ice break off into the ocean in the form of icebergs that they can be harvested. Icebergs are melted and bottled under strict quality conditions in order to preserve the water's natural qualities.
Production can be limited due to extended winters and the harsh conditions of the North Atlantic. Harvesting icebergs is a dangerous task. They are very unstable, shift frequently and can roll over in seconds, which make the possibility of drinking iceberg water an accomplishment in itself.
Berg water comes from Icebergs, a unique source. Berg should not be confused with glacier water. The main difference is that glacier water is bottled after it melts to the pools at the base of the glacier, coming in contact with land. Iceberg water is harvested directly from the icebergs, and is not exposed to ground contaminants.
There are other waters that have a low TDS (total dissolved solids). However, Berg water has a TDS of less than 10 ppm, one of the lowest in the market. Since icebergs have the consistency of concrete, seawater is unable to penetrate the ice and contaminate the mineral content. The result is pure, clean water with the crisp natural taste of melted snow.
Harvesting is mostly done by hand and small quantities so the impact in the environment is almost non-existent. Icebergs melt naturally in the ocean, so instead of exploiting springs or underground aquifers, Berg collects the water before it disappears into the sea. The water is bottled in its natural state, without significant processing in order to preserve its natural properties. The water maintains the same composition and characteristics both at the time of bottling and collection.
As a reminder, the map on the right shows just how far Berg extends into the Northern Atlantic. The island is isolated from direct contact with the mainland.
The only way our cases of water arrive here, are by Ferry. In the dead of winter, another problem arises, shown by the next image which is a ferry stuck in the ice. It took 3 days last winter to free this ferry.
