Fiji, the land that time and airborne toxins forgot.

What would you expect to find at the edge of the world? Gold? Another civilization? Perhaps nothing at all. One thing is for certain, you won’t find pollutants. Our water begins as rain, purified by equatorial trade winds after traveling thousands of miles across the Pacific Ocean. Once it arrives in Fiji, it filters through ancient volcanic rock over hundreds of years. During this process, FIJI Water collects lifeessential minerals, like silica, and finally gathers in a natural artesian aquifer, where it is preserved and protected from external elements.

Bottled at the source, natural artesian pressure forces the water through a hermetically sealed delivery system free of human contact.

FIJI Water is water as only one of the world’s last virgin ecosystems can create. It’s a place far from the 21st century. So far, in fact, that the people of Fiji have no word for “pollutants”. T h e n a t u r e o f w a t e r .
