Ruhr Natürliches Mineralwasser

Ruhr Natürliches Mineralwasser is a regional mineral water brand deeply rooted in the North Rhine-Westphalia region of Germany. The product is sourced and bottled locally within the Ruhr area, a region historically famous for its industrial heritage and mineral-rich geology.

The brand is owned and produced by the Schloss-Quelle Mellis GmbH, an independent, family-run company headquartered in Mülheim an der Ruhr. Founded over 100 years ago, the Mellis Group has grown through four generations to become a significant regional player in the beverage industry, operating several mineral springs and a large logistics network. The 'Ruhr' brand is marketed with the slogan 'Aus der Ruhr für die Region' (From the Ruhr for the region), emphasizing its local origin and sustainable short supply chains within the metropolitan area. As of 2026, the company remains under the ultimate ownership of the Mellis family, maintaining its status as a traditional German medium-sized enterprise (Mittelstand).
