Radenska Mineral Water (Slovenia)

Weather…

Radenska is one of the most recognized mineral water brands in Central Europe and a hallmark of Slovenian industrial excellence. The springs at Radenci were first discovered in 1833, and commercial bottling began in 1869 under the guidance of Dr. Karl Henn. The iconic logo featuring three hearts, introduced in 1931, symbolizes the health-giving properties of the water and the unity of hearts across borders. The modern production plant is located in Boračeva, adjacent to the Radenci spa resort in northeastern Slovenia. Radenska mineral water is famed for its high natural carbon dioxide content and rich mineral profile. Over the decades, the company has diversified its portfolio to include a wide variety of soft drinks and fruit juices. Since 2015, Radenska has been part of the Czech Kofola Group, which has facilitated further international growth. Beyond its economic role in the Prekmurje region, the company is a dedicated supporter of sports and environmental sustainability initiatives, such as local reforestation efforts.
