Baeksansu is based on water springing from Naeducheon, located at an altitude of 670m on Baekdusan Mountain. It is a spring water that naturally flows out without external pressure from the source, maintaining the same water quality throughout the year. The company emphasized that there is no risk of environmental damage or depletion.

Since 2003, Nongshim has traveled across Asia, Europe, and Hawaii to find the best water source, ultimately choosing Naeducheon, designated as a protected pristine forest area within Baekdusan, preserving its clean nature. A separate waterway connects the source to the production line 3.7 km away, producing Baeksansu without harming Baekdusan’s pristine forest. The bottled water sourced here and sold domestically is exclusively Nongshim Baeksansu.

An excellent water source directly translates to superior taste and quality. Experts classify water with a magnesium to calcium ratio close to 1 as healthy water, and Baeksansu maintains a ratio above 0.9.

The Nongshim Baeksansu factory operates as a fully automated "smart factory" with minimal filtration systems, designed to keep Baekdusan’s water pure. From water intake to production, logistics, and shipping, no human hands touch the process. This system is designed to fundamentally prevent any possible contamination.
