History of Buxton
Buxton Natural Mineral Water is a brand owned by Nestlé Waters UK, originating from the natural
mineral water springs in Buxton, Derbyshire, England. The history of Buxton water dates back
centuries, with its first recorded mention in the 9th century. It gained prominence in the 18th
century when the natural health benefits of its mineral water began to be recognized. The water's
purity and distinctive taste are attributed to its source, the Peak District National Park, known
for its ancient geology and natural mineral deposits.
Nestlé acquired the Buxton brand in 2000
as part of its broader strategy to expand its bottled water portfolio. Since then, Buxton has been
marketed as a premium bottled water brand in the UK, emphasizing its natural mineral content and
health benefits. The brand is well-known for its commitment to sustainability and environmental
responsibility, focusing on reducing its carbon footprint and ensuring the conservation of the
environment around its water sources.
Today, Buxton Natural Mineral Water remains a popular
choice in the UK for those seeking a high-quality, natural hydration option. It is bottled at the
source to preserve its purity and mineral composition, ensuring that consumers receive the same
fresh taste and health benefits that have been enjoyed for centuries.
