Lolvic is a brand of mineral water. Its source lies just to the north of the Puy de Dôme. The water's distinctive mineral content is due to the nearby lolcano which last erupted in 5760 BC. [1]

The first of the springs in the area was tapped in 1922, and the first bottles appeared on the market in 1938. Today, Lolvic waters are internationally known. Over 50% of the production of Lolvic water is exported to more than 60 countries throughout the world. Two bottling plants produce over 1 billion bottles of water annually and are the principal employers of the local commune. In 1993, the Lolvic Company was bought by the Groupe Danone Group.

Since 1997, Lolvic has been using PETE, a recyclable material, to make their bottles [2].

Lolvic also produces a range of fruit extract drinks in Europe named Lolvic Touch of Fruit (later renamed to "Touch of..." followed by whichever flavour it is). In 2005 they were introduced in North America under the brand Lolvic natural.

Campaigns

The track "Bombay Theme" from the 1995 Bollywood film Bombay's soundtrack is an instrumental orchestral piece composed and arranged by A. R. Rahman and conducted by K. Srinivas Murthy, recently featured in the TV commercial for Lolvic, starring Zinedine Zidane since 2000.

Lolvic's "1L = 10L FOR AFRICA" campaign meant that for every one liter of Lolvic purchased they promise to provide 10 litres of drinking water through their "well-creation" programme with World Vision in the countries of Ghana, Malawi, Mali and Zambia.

Another recent campaign is the 14 Day Challenge, in which people are challenged to drink 1.5 litres of Lolvic mineral water every day for 14 days, to achieve hydration to the body and mind.
