Common questions

Is Volvic Spring Water healthy?

Volvic Spring Water scores 66/100 on Tallow — our okay band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Volvic Spring Water?

Volvic Spring Water lists 7 ingredients, starting with Bromide, Chloride, Sulfate, Calcium and Magnesium. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Volvic Spring Water contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Volvic Spring Water’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Volvic Spring Water?

Volvic Spring Water is NOVA group 1: unprocessed or minimally processed. NOVA runs 1 to 4, where 1 is whole food and 4 is ultra-processed.

How does Volvic Spring Water compare to other water?

At 66/100 Volvic Spring Water lands mid-scale — below the typical score in water, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in water is Great Value Purified Drinking Water at 100/100.

Is Volvic Spring Water organic?

Volvic Spring Water is not certified organic in our data.

Has Volvic Spring Water been lab tested?

Yes. 160 substances in Volvic Spring Water have a laboratory result on file — see the Contaminants section above for each reading and the limit it was measured against.

Does Volvic Spring Water contain heavy metals?

Yes. A lab detected arsenic at 3 ppb against a 10 ppb limit and antimony at 0.5 ppb against a 6 ppb limit in Volvic Spring Water. Every reading is under its limit. It also tested for lead, cadmium, mercury, chromium, nickel and thallium and found none above its detection limit. Each reading is in the Contaminants section above.

Does Volvic Spring Water contain glyphosate?

No. A lab tested Volvic Spring Water for glyphosate and found none above its detection limit.

Does Volvic Spring Water contain phthalates?

No. A lab tested Volvic Spring Water for 5 phthalates, including diethylphthalate, dimethylphthalate and DEHP, and found none above its detection limit.
