25		−	Saskia Classic is the carbonated sort of Lidl's own-label Saskia natural mineral water, sold in Germany in 1.5-litre and 0.5-litre one-way PET bottles alongside the Medium and Still sorts.[^meg-water][^lidl-saskia] The bottler, MEG Weißenfels GmbH & Co. KG, fills the sort at five spring sites — Leißling, Löningen, Jessen, Kirkel and Wörth am Rhein — and names the spring on each label, so bottles carrying the Classic name differ in mineralisation and carry separate barcodes.[^meg-water] All of the Saskia waters are described by the bottler as suitable for a low-sodium diet.[^meg-water]
	57	+	Saskia Classic is the carbonated sort of Saskia, the own-label natural mineral water of the German discounter Lidl, sold beside the Medium and Still sorts in 1,5-litre and 0,5-litre one-way PET bottles.[^lidl-saskia][^meg-water] It is filled for Lidl by MEG Weißenfels GmbH & Co. KG at five spring sites — Leißling, Löningen, Jessen, Kirkel and Wörth am Rhein — and every label names its own spring, so bottles sold as Classic differ in mineralisation and carry a separate barcode for each spring and size.[^meg-water][^off-42376057] The bottler describes all of the Saskia waters as suitable for a low-sodium diet, and the labels print "Natriumarm".[^meg-water][^off-42376187]
	58	+
	59	+	The barcode of the 1,5-litre Wörth am Rhein bottle was already catalogued by the first Barcodepedia in February 2007, as "Saskia Quelle", described simply as Lidl mineral water.[^oldbcp] The Schwarz Group, Lidl's parent, dates the development of the Saskia "Kreislaufflasche" to 2008, and says that since June 2021 every one-way deposit PET bottle its Schwarz Produktion arm fills for the Lidl own labels in Germany — Classic among them — has been made of 100 % recycled plastic apart from cap and label.[^schwarz-rpet] A photograph of the 1,5-litre back panel taken in January 2022 shows that claim in place, framed as "Flaschenkörper besteht aus 100 % recyceltem Kunststoff" beside the 0,25 € one-way deposit.[^off-back-2022] An English-language export label sells the same carbonated water as "Sparkling" rather than Classic.[^off-20030995]
