Poland Spring Water has a typical pH of 6.5 – 7.5 — neutral.
Poland Spring originates from multiple natural spring sources in Maine, including the historic original Poland Spring source near the town of Poland, Maine. The brand is owned by BlueTriton Brands (formerly Nestlé Waters North America).
TDS around 47 mg/L places Poland Spring in the soft-water category. Low mineral content means light buffering — pH stays close to neutral.
The granite-and-sand geology of Maine produces water that is naturally low in dissolved solids and close to neutral pH.
The combination of low TDS and neutral pH gives Poland Spring its signature "clean and crisp" character — one of the most popular still waters in the US.
One of the lightest mineral profiles in this comparison set — low calcium, magnesium, sodium and bicarbonate across the board, consistent with Maine's granite-and-sand aquifer geology.
| Mineral | Amount (mg/L) |
|---|---|
| Calcium | 7 |
| Magnesium | 1.3 |
| Sodium | 3.5 |
| Bicarbonate | 21 |
| TDS (total) | 47 |
