Walking the green path into the future with the usual zeal

Aquarius-Aqua Kft.’s last investment cost more than HUF 313.5 million and its results were a new production hall and new jobs.

Aquarius-Aqua Kft. was established in 1991 and it is the mineral water (Veritas Gold and Aquarius brands) and soft drink supplier of the biggest retail chains. The modern 4,000m² production hall is located at the company’s Albertirsa premises and was realised with a HUF 99.5 million European Union funding via the New Széchenyi Plan. On 4 production lines 3 million bottles of mineral water and fruit juice can be produced in a day – this is one of the biggest production capacities in Central Europe. Aquarius-Aqua Kft. has a 35-percent share of the domestic mineral water market and in 2013 volumes sales exceeded the 500 million-litre threshold. It isn’t only their production capacity that strengthens but their CSR activity too. Before Christmas the company donated truckloads of goods to charities and foundations. Their CSR programme also focuses on environmental protection: increasing soft drink and mineral water production also means a growing number of PET bottles used, so unsurprisingly Aquarius-Aqua Kft.’s goal is to make PET bottle production and PET waste recycling greener. The main goal is to use more recycled PET for their products, which is impossible without constant innovation and research. Aquarius-Aqua Kft. wishes to provide customers with quality Hungarian products that are environmentally friendly as well.
