Refreshing, uplifting and bringing joy to South Africa – one bottle at a time.

About us

In 1997 a uniquely wholesome brand of water was born. After testing a natural water source buried in the heart of KwaZulu-Natal and finding it was too good not to share, the water was bottled and branded “aQuellé”. aQuellé is a hybrid of the Latin word ‘aqua’, meaning water and the German word ‘Quelle’ meaning spring. aQuellé then introduced typically South African flavours in 1998 and we have seen our flavoured drinks range grow as it now offers 10 refreshing flavours. It’s no wonder then that aQuellé is loved by all South Africans today!

  • For 25 years aQuellé has been refreshing South Africans with natural spring water and flavoured drinks! We are deeply grateful for God’s grace in reaching this milestone. To celebrate, aQuellé launched a limited-edition aluminium bottle and committed to donate 25 water tanks to 25 needy communities for every bottle sold. The water bottling company installed a water tank at Aldinville Primary School in KwaDukuza, KwaZulu-Natal on Tuesday, 30 July 2024. Michael Ngubane, director of aQuellé said, “Access to safe and clean drinking water is a challenge for many communities. In addition, frequent floods in recent years have caused considerable damage to municipal water supply systems and water has become a crisis. This is why aQuellé has come here to help. We brought the school a big tank of water and the children can be happy as they come to school.” Each of the 25 donated water tanks holds 5,000 litres of water and is equipped with a tap, providing a sustainable source of water for community members and school children. "This day is the best day ever in the history of our school. We asked aQuellé for help, and today they have brought us a very large water tank," said Thulani Khumalo, principal of Aldinville Primary School. "The school will never have to close again because of water shortage. We now have a water tank that we can fill, and the learners can continue with their studies as normal." The initiative is in line with aQuellé’s mission of spreading real joy. "We are thrilled to celebrate 25 years at aQuellé and look forward to delivering more water tanks to communities in need," said Nokukhanya Memela, who was part of the aQuellé team on the day. " aQuellé is there to always share joy! We hope that the children will also learn to look out for their communities and those who need help." aQuellé is working with local municipalities and schools to install the additional tanks in communities that need safe and reliable access to water.

  • With National and World Clean-Up Day on 21st September around the corner, we’re excited to look back on the journey of our Khula Clean-Up campaign. Since we started in September 2021, we’ve organised over 80 clean-ups across KZN and South Africa. It’s been fantastic to see over 8,500 volunteers—including local schools, municipalities, and environmental groups—come together to make a difference. Watching communities unite to clean up and promote recycling has been truly inspiring. A huge thank you to everyone who’s been part of this effort. Your involvement is helping us build a cleaner, greener future and make a real impact! #KhulaCleanUps #CommunityImpact #aQuellé #CleanUpDay
