Perrier Accused of Misleading Consumers About Mineral Water Source
Nestle USA Inc. markets Perrier mineral water as being pure water “captured at the source in France” without disclosing it uses filters to modify the water’s composition, according to recent analysis.
It is also asserted that Nestle’s underground water source is no longer protected and may be contaminated by bacteria and pollutants requiring treatment.
In 2020, a whistleblower associated with a mineral water bottling company reported unauthorized practices to a French agency. The agency investigated and reportedly found extensive practices inconsistent with regulations for the sale of mineral water, including Perrier mineral water.
The federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act follows the European standard of quality for mineral water, specifying that mineral water must originate “from a geologically and physically protected underground water source” and is “distinguished by other types of water by its constant level and relative proportions of minerals and trace elements at the point of emergence from the source,” according to recent investigations.
