Each water source has a different composition, which depends on the specific hydrogeological conditions and the hydrogeological model of the aquifer in each region.
The uniqueness of the hydrogeological profile of SOUROTI, the distinctive stratigraphy and composition of the rocks through which the groundwater resource passes, and the long time it takes to move through the rocks, gives us a water of unique composition. The journey starts when the rainwater descends to great depths, passes through the rocks that enrich it with ions and trace elements and, being protected from external surface influences and environmental pollutants, gushes out into the Souroti area.
Throughout this journey, the water is filtered and cleaned naturally. By flowing through the carbonate rocks (limestones, dolomites), it is enriched with valuable minerals such as calcium, magnesium, carbon dioxide (CO2) and bicarbonates (HCO3-).
Through its contact with geothermal fluids at a great depth, it is further enriched with silica (SiO2) and lithium (Li). It springs from the heart of the earth through geological faults at the SOUROTI spring and is bottled directly.
The origin, the circulation pattern up to the water-intake point and the specificity of the chemical composition of the water have been analysed and studied through a series of hydrogeological – geophysical studies, and the protection zones of the natural resource have been defined, within which all anthropogenic activities are strictly controlled.
The source of water abstraction and the underground reserves are controlled and monitored continuously and systematically, in cooperation with specialised scientists and University Institutions, in order to ensure the rational management of the natural resource, stability and sustainability.
