Madison Blue

Artesian water. Bottled in glass. Never plastic. From the Madison Aquifer, Wyoming.

We own the land where this water comes from. Four thousand acres in Wyoming. The aquifer sits beneath rock that has been filtering water since before anyone was keeping records.

We have walked the ground above it. We know exactly where this water has been.

Every fine dining restaurant in the world serves water in glass. They made that choice decades ago. The rest of us are still catching up.

UCLA vending machines carry only glass or aluminum beverages. USC eliminated plastic bottles across campus and medical operations. The entire UC system is phasing out single-use plastics.

The next generation of consumers is being trained on a different standard.

66% of Americans know bottled water contains microplastics. 33% still drink it daily.

They have seen the research. They just haven’t found an alternative worth trusting. That gap is why we exist.

Researchers measured plastic concentrations in human brain tissue. The levels were 50% higher in 2024 than in 2016.

The brain accumulates 7 to 30 times more plastic than the kidney or liver. The primary polymer found: polyethylene. The material plastic water bottles are made from.

The most common plastic found in bottled water is nylon. It comes from the filtration systems brands use to make their water “clean.”

The purification process is shedding plastic into the water it is supposed to be cleaning.

When the source is right, you skip that step entirely.

Calcium 47. Magnesium 26. pH 7.6. Silica, bicarbonate, and trace minerals shaped by geology over thousands of years.

Most premium brands strip water down and start over. We skip that step. The aquifer already did the work.

Most premium water sold in the United States comes from Europe. France, Norway, Austria, Italy.

Ours comes from an artesian aquifer beneath the Bighorn Mountains in Wyoming. Shaped by more than a thousand feet of limestone. No passport required.

A plastic water bottle left in a hot car leaches antimony up to 40 times faster. At 50 degrees Celsius, it exceeds EPA limits within 24 hours.

Glass does not change at any temperature. It held wine two thousand years ago and it holds water the same way today.

Ohio State tested bottled water against treated tap. Bottled water had three times more nanoplastics. The packaging was the primary source.

The lead researcher’s advice: drink from the tap, not from a plastic bottle.

We would add a third option.

Glass does not shed particles into what it holds. It does not leach chemicals when heated. It does not degrade over time.

We chose glass for one reason: it leaves water exactly as it was at the source.

A generation that grew up on plastic water bottles is paying premium prices for glass. They have read the research. The shift is already underway.

California passed SB 1147. Bottled water brands must now report microplastic levels annually.

The data is coming. Glass brands have nothing to hide.

A study in the New England Journal of Medicine found polyethylene in 58% of arterial plaque samples. Patients with microplastics in their arteries faced a 4.53x higher risk of heart attack, stroke, or death.

Polyethylene is what plastic water bottles are made from.

Glass is chemically inert.

Researchers at Columbia found 240,000 plastic particles in every liter of bottled water. 90% were nanoplastics... small enough to cross into your bloodstream, your brain, your organs.

The solution most people hear: stop drinking bottled water.

Our answer: stop drinking from plastic.

We bottle in glass. Always have. Always will.
