Sinalco Orange soft drink

Sinalco is a historic German soft drink brand, recognized as the oldest soft drink brand in continental Europe. Founded in 1902 by Franz Hartmann and Friedrich Eduard Bilz, the brand was originally known as Bilz-Brause before being renamed Sinalco in 1905, derived from the Latin 'sine alcohole' (without alcohol).

The brand's iconic red circle logo and distinctive bottle shape have made it a staple in the German beverage market. Historically, it saw significant international expansion, becoming a globally recognized name. Since 1994, the brand has been owned by the Hövelmann family's beverage group, which has revitalized the brand while maintaining its production roots in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. Today, Sinalco products are manufactured primarily in Germany and distributed globally through various licensing agreements.
