A drop of life in the heart of Transylvania, in the Calimani Mountains
Climbing from the heart of the Caliman Mountains – volcanic mountains, the natural mineral water of Stânceni is one of the few natural oligo morphological waters that offer optimal hydration and good functioning of the body. The Stânceni hydromineral reservoir is situated in the southern part of the Călimani Mountains, in the Mureş Defile of the Mureş Landscape, on the valley of the Mermezeu brook, at approx. 6 km upstream of its confluence with the Mureş River. The place of occurrence of mineral water sources is at an altitude of 800 m, in a forested area, away from any human activity.
In its natural state, the natural mineral water “Stânceni” is carbonated and comes from andestic volcanic rocks. The aquifer is powered by infiltration of rainwater to an estimated depth of approx. 200 m, where the mixture with carbon dioxide from post-volcanic manifestations is made, the main mineralizing and hydrodynamic factor.

The beginning of the bottling activity dates back to 1977, when bottled water in 1 liter bottles was distributed more locally in Mures County. Later, in 2006, a new, modern, greenfield investment factory built by Romaqua Group is being built.
