  • Aqvita's technology is all about giving you instant, more nutritious, better-tasting mineral water. Here’s how we do that differently from competitors. Instead of using mineral powders that don't mix well and take time to dissolve, Aqvita uses a unique liquid mix that dissolves the minerals into the water faster and more evenly. Plus, we avoid using compounds like maleic acid, which is usually added to stop crystals from forming when many minerals are used, but it can mess with the water's natural taste. Some methods use chloride, which can also make the water taste a bit off and limit how many minerals you can put in. Aqvita keeps it natural, using the same minerals and gases found in spring water. So we can pack in more minerals without compromising on that fresh, clean taste.

  • Aqvita formulations are versatile and can mineralize various types of water, including purified water, spring water, and tap water. Whether you're looking to enhance the mineral content of your drinking water or create custom formulations for specific applications, Aqvita technology provides the flexibility to meet your needs. Our advanced dosing system ensures precise mineralization, resulting in high-quality water tailored to your preferences.

  • Through our advanced customization options, you can recreate the flavor and composition of your preferred water brand with Aqvita products and technologies. By precisely dosing liquid formulations of bicarbonate minerals and utilizing cutting-edge technology, we can tailor the mineralization levels to match your preferred water brand. Our process ensures consistency and accuracy, allowing you to enjoy the same taste and composition you love while benefiting from the purity and quality of Aqvita water.

  • Purified water is typically processed to remove impurities, including minerals, resulting in a product with very low mineral content. However, the extent of mineral depletion can vary depending on the purification process employed. Processes such as distillation and reverse osmosis remove most minerals, while other methods, like carbon filtration, may retain some minerals. Therefore, while purified water is often low in minerals, the degree of depletion depends on the specific purification method used.

  • Minerals in water play a crucial role in maintaining a healthy diet and overall health. They contribute essential nutrients that support various bodily functions, including:

    Electrolyte balance: Minerals like calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium help regulate fluid balance, nerve function, and muscle contractions.

    Bone health: Calcium and magnesium are vital for bone strength and density, helping to prevent conditions like osteoporosis.

    Metabolic health: Minerals such as chromium and zinc are involved in metabolism, aiding in energy production and nutrient absorption.

    Heart health: Potassium helps regulate blood pressure, while magnesium supports cardiovascular function and rhythm.

    Hydration: minerals help enhance the taste of water, encouraging adequate hydration, which is essential for overall health and well-being.

    Incorporating mineral-rich water into your diet can potentially help you meet your body's mineral requirements and support optimal health and vitality.
