From the heart of the
Austrian Alps
Gastein mineral water springs from the depths of the unspoilt mountain world of the Hohe Tauern. As it travels through layers of alpine rock, it is enriched with valuable minerals - making it one of the purest and most powerful mineral waters. Every sip stands for the purity of nature and the energy that unites.
With its balanced, fresh flavour, Gasteiner is one of Austria's most popular mineral water brands. The unspoilt nature of the Hohe Tauern gives the water its unmistakable purity and strength. Every sip brings the vibrancy of the Alps directly into the moment - like a musical moment that touches the soul.
Bubbling past
Gastein thermal water was first mentioned in a document as "drinking spa water" as early as 1327. Since then, i.e. for many centuries, people have enjoyed drinking Gastein's thermal water.
The "Allerhöchste Familienfond Habsburg" acquired the "Thermalquellen zu Bad Gastein" and finally leased them to the municipality in 1887, through which they were ultimately purchased in 1912.
At this time, local hoteliers set in motion the first commercial utilisation of Gastein water for drinking purposes. They founded a company with a mineral water wholesaler and representatives from the city and province of Salzburg.
The founding year of the brand and the company Gasteiner Tafelwasser. From this point onwards, motifs relating to the origins of Gasteiner have adorned the bottle design.
The first name change took place. The water was now renamed "Original Gasteiner Heiltafelwasser".
Decades later, the name of the mineral water was adapted once again to reflect the times and from then on it was sold under the name "Gasteiner Kristallklar".
In order to emphasise the alpine origin even more clearly, the visual appearance was adapted. To this day, every Gastein bottle is a reminder of the origin of the crystal-clear mineral water: the mountainous world of Bad Gastein.
Gasteiner underwent a comprehensive relaunch to give the brand a modern and contemporary look. Among other things, a new designer bottle was introduced in the catering sector. The unusual model has received numerous awards (e.g: "Austrian State Prize for Exemplary Packaging", HGV-Praxis Prize, Salzburg State Prize for Corporate Design, "if product Design Award").
In spring 2019, three new refreshing drinks were launched in an innovative container never seen before in this category: Gasteiner Lemon, Gasteiner Grapefruit and Gasteiner Orange in a can. The purest, sparkling water meets directly squeezed fruit juice, combined in a practical 0.33 litre can - 100% natural refreshment for on the go. Due to its great success, the range was expanded in the following two years to include apple and redcurrant flavours.
2024 saw the Gastein Infinity Music Tour take off in a big way after a successful test year on a smaller scale, promising people all over Austria precious music, sampling tours with live acts and endless emotions to experience.
