Sinalco is a historic German soft drink brand, recognized as the oldest soft drink brand in continental Europe. It was founded in 1902 by the naturopath Friedrich Eduard Bilz and the industrialist Franz Hartmann. Originally named 'Bilz-Brause,' it was rebranded to Sinalco in 1905, a name derived from the Latin phrase 'sine alcohole' (without alcohol).

The brand has a rich history of international expansion, particularly in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. Today, it is famous for its iconic Red Dot logo and its wide range of carbonated beverages, including the classic Sinalco Cola Light shown in the image.

Since 1994, the trademark has been owned by the Hövelmann family (Hövelmann Group). Under their management, the brand has maintained its heritage while modernizing its production and distribution networks through various licensing partners worldwide.
