About VEEN Waters
VEEN is a Finnish drink brand that started in December 2006. It is known for its premium, or very high-quality, products. The company that makes and sells VEEN drinks is called VEEN Waters Finland Oy Ltd. Its main office is in Ylitornio, Finland.
How VEEN Started
When VEEN first began, some of the main people in charge were Tomi Grönfors, Mikko Nikkilä, and Ville Hvitfelt. In January 2012, a new family took over the brand. This family now runs the company and guides its plans. Today, the VEEN brand is part of a group of three companies. They get water from two different sources and have two bottling factories. VEEN products are sold in 16 different countries around the world.
What VEEN Makes
VEEN offers a variety of drinks, mainly focusing on different types of water and natural mixes.
Spring Water from Finland
VEEN bottles spring water from Lapland, a region in Finland. This water has a very low amount of minerals, about 17.22 milligrams per liter. The water is naturally filtered through a special layer of earth left behind from the Ice Age. This happens at a natural spring area called Konisaajo.
- VEEN Velvet is a natural spring water.
- VEEN Effervescent is a gently sparkling spring water.
These waters come in glass bottles that can be recycled. They are often called "culinary" products because their low mineral content makes them great for pairing with food.
Mineral Water from Bhutan
VEEN also offers natural mineral water products from the country of Bhutan.
- VEEN Still is a natural mineral water.
- VEEN Classic is another natural mineral water.
These products also come in recyclable glass bottles. They are meant for staying hydrated, feeling refreshed, and getting important minerals.
Nordic Mixers
In late 2017, VEEN launched its Nordic Mixers. These are premium drink mixers inspired by Nordic flavors.
- Nordic Tonic Water
- Nordic Soda Water
- Nordic Ginger Ale
- Nordic Bitter Lemon
Ayurveda Inspired Drinks
VEEN also has a special line of drinks inspired by Ayurveda, an ancient health system.
- VEEN Ayurveda Water is a wellness drink. It has natural plant, fruit, and botanical (plant-based) ingredients.
- VEEN Ayurveda Super Shot is a small, 100 mL organic juice shot. It also contains natural plant, fruit, and botanical juices, following Ayurveda ideas.
