The Lutecia team
An authentic and committed brand
We believe in a committed, family-owned, French company.
Lutecia is an independent, family-owned French company that grows by placing people at the heart of every decision. Behind every drop of water is a collective of passionate men and women, united by strong values. For us, our responsibility towards our employees, clients, and partners is paramount. We ensure that all our relationships are conducted with respect, ethics, transparency, and loyalty.
Through our actions, Lutecia® strives every day to uphold high standards, combining excellence and responsibility for a more sustainable future.
Respectful of the source and the surrounding ecosystem.
As a responsible water bottler, we are fully aware of the essential role our ecosystems and natural water sources play. For us, natural mineral water is a precious resource to be protected and preserved. Like guardians, we adopt responsible management of this resource, ensuring that the quantities of natural mineral water drawn comply with current regulations and place no pressure on the resource.
Where nature and expertise meet
We believe in a production anchored in its territory
As the only natural mineral water from the Île-de-France region, Lutecia® natural mineral water is drawn just a few kilometres from the city that inspired its name*. Its source lies in Saint-Lambert-des-Bois, in the heart of the Vallée de Chevreuse in the Yvelines region. This area, formerly known as Port-Royal, is located just steps from Versailles, in the midst of thousands of hectares of preserved forest. It is drawn from 592 metres underground, far from any human activity, thus free from any pollution.
Lutecia® natural mineral water emerges from a territory that is 90% covered by forests and natural spaces.
This unique territory, home to remarkable biodiversity, is at the heart of our commitment to sustainable and responsible production.
Thus, Lutecia® embodies the best of French nature, offering everyone hydration deeply rooted in local heritage.
*Paris was known as Lutetia in the Gallo-Roman period before the year 310.
Lutecia®, natural mineral water, recognised by its peers.
Produced in Île-de-France, Lutecia® natural mineral water is as transparent in its composition as it is in its production. The “Produced in Île-de-France” label proudly underlines that Lutecia® is drawn, bottled, and enjoyed in the Île-de-France region. Through this label, Lutecia® meets the expectations of increasingly demanding consumers regarding product origin.
Lutecia® supports its region.
Lutecia is deeply rooted in its territory. The brand actively supports local organisations working alongside vulnerable populations, offering access to clean drinking water and ensuring safe, natural hydration.
Lutecia® is committed to reducing its carbon footprint.
Every day, Lutecia® takes concrete steps to reduce its carbon footprint across its entire value chain:
- A bottling site powered by renewable energy
- More responsible logistics
- Electric vehicles for short-distance deliveries
- Eco-friendly packaging with lightweight, recyclable bottles (and made from recycled material: 100% RPET for the 50cl, 28% RPET for the 1L and 1.5L)
- Eco-design with aluminium cans
Since 2022, with our tethered caps, we have been significantly improving the recyclability of our products. By staying attached to the bottle, the cap facilitates recycling with a single gesture and prevents it from ending up in nature.
In our pursuit of sustainability and environmental responsibility, we strive to give new life to all production waste. Today, our waste recovery initiatives are carried out with local partners who share our values.
Preserving natural water to reveal
the beauty of tomorrow.
