Flow Alkaline Spring Water is 100% artesian spring water from Bruce County, Ontario, Canada.
The water is naturally filtered: Groundwater is renewed by rain that infiltrates the Earth’s surface, moving deeper due to gravity. The water then moves through the pore spaces between the grains of sand and silt, and migrates towards the limestone and dolostone aquifer from which we draw our water. Each step of the way, impurities are removed and minerals dissolve giving the water its unique taste and appeal.
Upon extraction the water passes through double filtration and gets UV treated. This is to ensure only the highest quality water makes it into the transportation vehicle.
At the plant, the water passes through double filtration and gets UV treated prior to entering the filling machine, A/3 Flex. This is to ensure the water stays clear of any impurities from transport.
Filtering prior to the ultraviolet water purifier removes contaminants and particulates that may interfere with the ultraviolet process. Ultraviolet (UV) light is a form of light that is invisible to the human eye. The UV light between 200 and 300 nanometers are categorized as germicidal. This capability has allowed widespread adoption of UV light as an environmentally friendly, chemical-free, and highly effective way to disinfect and safeguard water against harmful microorganisms.
Derived from essential oils, essences and extracts of organic fruits, vegetables and botanicals, our flavored waters contain NO sugar, NO sweeteners, NO juice, NO calories and NO GMOs. Designed to be deliciously drinkable, their light, fresh taste is inspired by the best spa and detox water recipes in the world. Each organic flavor comes from just 2 plant-based ingredients while still maintaining the quality of the water and the minerals that make it alkaline. Learn more about our flavors here.
Alkaline is a measurement of the ability to absorb acid. The more alkaline a liquid, the less acidic it will be. Alkaline water is rich in alkalizing compounds, including calcium, potassium, magnesium, and bicarbonate. All naturally occurring minerals found in Flow Alkaline Spring Water.
The pH is sensitive to oxygen exposure. Once the pack is filled, the water remains totally shut off from oxygen and sunlight throughout the remaining production process. The first time our water sees sunlight is when you open it and enjoy.
Close to 70% of the paperboard is from responsibly harvested forests.
Renewable resources are natural resources that, if managed properly, are replaced by natural processes at a rate comparable to, or faster than, they are used up. Wood, hemp, corn are all examples of natural, renewable resources. Tetra Pak’s ultimate goal is to be able to offer a fully renewable carton package for liquid food.

We suggest Flow is consumed within 24 months for the best tasting, highest quality water.
Our water is naturally mineralized spring water, which means it flows naturally from the deep aquifer to the surface. We obtain our water from ancient, abundant, and naturally occurring groundwater sources, which are encased primarily in limestone that filters the water, and imparts it with the characteristic smooth Flow taste, natural minerals and electrolytes, and high alkalinity.
We manage our source to ensure we only use a small fraction of the abundant water that nature provides, and we don’t interrupt the natural flow of spring water through the environment. We also have rigorous water monitoring programs run by professional hydrologists. Flow’s usage is consistent with applicable laws and regulations, but also our deep respect and cherishment of the Earth’s water resources. We are dedicated to sustainable and thoughtful stewardship of our beautiful natural springs for the enjoyment of current and future generations.
Our water is taken directly from the aquifer, filled into vehicles with insulated stainless steel tanks, and driven to the production facility. We use modern and fully road-worthy vehicles, exercise quiet braking techniques, and employ certified and highly-trained professional drivers. We also use efficient production practices to minimize the number of vehicles on the road to transport the water.
We work with ecologists, hydrologists, and other environmental professionals to protect the natural habitat in which our springs exist. We work hard to maintain and leave the surrounding land in its natural state. Flow takes its environmental responsibilities seriously, and is a certified B-Corporation, which means we meet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability; including giving back a portion of proceeds to charity. We also support environmental and social causes aligned with preserving and protecting water resources.
