Danone’s bottled waters business

The waters division of the Danone Group encompasses several well known international brands including Evian, Volvic, Badoit and Bonafont, as well as leading national brands such as Aqua (Indonesia), Villavicencio, Villa del Sur (Argentina), Zywiec Zdroj (Poland), Hayat (Turkey), Fontvella, Lanjaron (Spain), Salus (Uruguay), Robust, Health (China) and Salvetat (France).

Danone is committed to putting healthy hydration on the map. What we drink is as important to our well-being as what we eat, and yet this part of our daily diet receives comparatively little attention from public health influencers and practitioners. This is largely due to a historical lack of scientific investigation which is only now being addressed.

Our aim is to encourage these scientific advances, and ensure the diffusion and application of these learnings.
