At Poland Spring, we know that every drop counts and we are proud of our efficient water use—not just in Maine, but throughout the entire family of Poland Spring's spring water brands. For example, to produce one gallon of Poland Spring's bottled water brands, only 1.3 gallons of water are required. This includes water used by equipment and in-line sanitation.
