Devonia Spring Water

Run by Neil Graham as a family business near Kingsbridge, Devonia works on a model that will be familiar to anyone who remembers milk on the doorstep: drop off the full bottles, pick up the empties, repeat. The water is drawn from an ancient spring in South Devon and bottled at source in glass, filtered naturally through the local rock formations on its way up. Local sourcing keeps the delivery miles down too.

Still and sparkling, the still soft and smooth from its mineral blend, the sparkling lightly carbonated for a bit of lift. The real difference is what happens next: bottles are collected on delivery rounds, washed and reused rather than recycled, which uses sixteen times less energy and saves up to 94% against recycling. For hospitality venues and event hosts, that also means empties stop being a waste problem. Worth a call if your glass bin is costing you.
