Greenlandic perpetual ice

INLAND ICE

Premiumwater | Finewater

The taste of 100,000 years: Real ice sheet or, as they say in Greenland, inland ice. 

The story:
Permanent ice with an area of more than 50,000 km² only exists in two places on Earth - Antarctica and Greenland.

Greenland's ice sheet covers around 80% of the country and is 2 to 3 km thick. In a continuous, natural process, the ice sheet "calves" icebergs, which melt and disappear into the ocean. By bottling the ice, one of the most valuable natural resources available is extracted before it is lost at sea.

The Greenland ice sheet has been preserved from any contact for more than 100,000 years and was formed long before the first humans. Thousands of years have preserved this natural product in a uniquely pristine state - completely free of pollutants or contaminants.

This puts INLAND ICE in the exceptionally rare category of the purest unprocessed drinking waters in the world - with a taste that fully reflects its uniqueness.

The water:
Ultimate palate enhancer

Nowadays, consumers are paying more and more attention to the quality of products, how they are grown and where they come from. Chefs and restaurateurs around the world must rise to the challenge of delivering new taste experiences that are not easily forgotten.

It is the unique chemical composition and extreme purity that not only gives this water such a smooth mouthfeel, but also prevents it from binding to the ingredients it is mixed with. A wonderful property that allows the different and individual flavors to fully shine. As the ultimate palate enhancer, ice shield water provides the perfect balance in a world of constant overload.

Water quality is measured in TDS. The term "dissolved solids" refers to all minerals, salts, metals, cations or anions dissolved in water. The total dissolved solids in water include inorganic salts, mainly calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, bicarbonates, chlorides and sulphates.

The water is subjected to three water quality tests during the bottling process. 

Responsibility:
Harvesting a natural resource

Greenland is 17 times the size of England, making it the largest island in the world. In the Disko Bay area in northwest Greenland alone, 70 million tons of inland ice are pushed into the bay every day in the form of icebergs, which then melt into the ocean.

The almost 60000 Inuit, the indigenous people and current population of Greenland, are traditionally hunters and their climate is not suitable for agriculture. Fishing has thus become the lifeline and main industry of the Greenlandic economy. It is therefore a necessary priority for the government to strengthen its economy through the development of new industries and thus improve the well-being of the Greenlandic population:

"The stated aim is to develop the production and export of ice and water for one or more business areas, which will contribute to the creation of income and employment in Greenland."

The government has therefore issued a license to enable the production of INLAND ICE in return for payment of royalties for every liter harvested.
