Can you provide information about the water hardness (°fH or °dH) of this water?
Hello Flint4, thank you for your inquiry. The French hardness at Aproz is 117 fH. Best regards, your M-Infoline team

The water itself is tiptop. BUT: what have you done with the caps? You can hardly get the lid off without easily injuring yourself. Do they have to be so well secured? I've already noticed this with three bottles.
Dear Sumpfhuen, thank you very much for your post. Could you give us the lot number and the best-before date of the affected bottles? We would like to look into this. You mention that you injured yourself slightly when opening the bottle - what does that mean? Thank you for your help and best regards, your M-Infoline team

The taste is somehow more special than other still waters. But I still really like it.
Is it true that this water was unsatisfactory in the Saldo sample? (see comment moccetti)
Hello Jasmin.
Thank you for your interest.
The uranium concentration in Aproz mineral water complies with the law and does not pose a health risk. The World Health Organization (WHO) assumes that uranium levels of up to 15 µg/L in drinking water are tolerable for adults (guideline level or recommendation). From the WHO's point of view, it is not scientifically tenable to describe levels below 15 µg/L as a health risk.
The WHO guidelines for drinking water quality are regarded as the international standard for ensuring safe drinking water. In Switzerland, neither a tolerance nor a limit value is currently specified for uranium in the Foreign Substances and Ingredients Ordinance (FIV); in a consultation in the area of food and consumer goods in 2013, the Federal Office of Public Health defined a limit value of 30 μg uranium/L for drinking and mineral water. At European level, there is currently no legally binding maximum content for uranium in drinking or mineral water. In the USA, the maximum permissible uranium content of drinking water was also set at 30 µg/L by the US EPA in the Safe Drinking Water Act.
Uranium occurs in different concentrations and compounds in rocks and minerals, in water and in soil. Naturally occurring uranium minerals are contained in small quantities in numerous rocks (e.g. granite) that are widespread on earth. The various mineral salts and trace elements in natural mineral waters originate from the slow transition of the mineral water through the geological layers of rock, which also contain uranium oxide. Like the main minerals, the uranium in mineral water is therefore of natural origin.
We hope this has been helpful to you and wish you a pleasant day. Your M-Infoline Team
