Bottled water — heavy metals, PFAS transparency, and exact-product verification
evian 1 Liter Bottle
Brand quality-report hub, exact 1L product-page image verification, and a 2025 annual report showing arsenic, lead, cadmium, mercury, and named PFAS as non-detect.
VerdictA credible best-list inclusion, now with a clearer numeric evidence trail than before.
Why it ranks
evian earns a place because it maintains a current water-reports hub and a 2025 annual report backed by NSF testing language, while the exact 1 liter bottle image is verifiable on the live product page. The 2025 annual report shows arsenic, lead, cadmium, and mercury as non-detect for the tested bottled-water sample, and the same report lists named PFAS / perfluorinated compounds including PFOA and PFOS as non-detect. That gives evian a clearer public PFAS trail than FIJI in this refresh.

Caveats
- Brand annual report, not Consumer Reports, is the primary product-specific source here
- ND depends on the report’s method/reporting limits; it is not a universal zero-exposure guarantee
