Brecon Carreg Still Natural Mineral Water 500 ml: version 1
Saved 2026-09-12 15:11 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added **Brecon Carreg Still Natural Mineral Water 500 ml** (EAN 5030341500506), taken from the wanted queue (the 2006 Barcodepedia page "still brecon carreg mineral water"). **Product** `product/05030341500506`: identity from the Open Food Facts label photographs (front: "Brecon Carreg / Still / Natural Mineral Water / 500ml e"), category GPC 10000232 Packaged Water - Unflavoured, net content 500 ml, status active. One observation (`label-2022`, GB/en, observed 2022-07-08) carries the ingredients exemption: a single-ingredient natural mineral water needs no ingredient list (Reg. (EU) 1169/2011 Art. 19(1)(e)) and falls outside the nutrition declaration Section (Art. 29(1)(b)) - both checked on legislation.gov.uk rather than assumed. Two panels hang off it: the printed typical analysis (basis 1 l, basis_state analysis) transcribed from the 718x440 raw upload, not the 400 px thumbnail - calcium 55, magnesium 15, sodium 5.0, potassium 0.5, bicarbonate 225 (hydrogen_carbonate_mg), chloride 9.0, sulphate 9.0, nitrate 3.5, silica 7.0, dry residue at 180 C 210.0 mg/l - plus an explicit `exempt` nutrition panel. pH at source 7.6 is a Specifications row. Open Food Facts' typed zeros for energy, fat, sugars and the rest were not copied: the record's own caution says those zeros mean "not recorded". **Markets**: GB, sourced, from A. B. Snell & Son (Penarth, Wales), whose listing carries SKU 5030341500506 at GBP 0.90, observed 2026-09-12. Open Food Facts files the barcode under France; the English-only label, the Welsh bottler and that listing say GB, so GB is recorded and the disagreement is a disputed research gap and a line in About. **Relations**: brand_owner_at_sale and bottled_by to `company/brecon-carreg`; gs1_prefix_owner to the same company as `derived`, because no source names the licensee of 5030341 (recorded as an unknown research gap) - prefix 503 is only GS1 UK. **Stubs**: `brand/brecon-carreg` (owned by Brecon Carreg Ltd since Dec 2019, by Spadel before that, ended); `company/brecon-carreg` (Brecon Carreg Ltd, GB-CH:12212678, incorporated 18 Sep 2019, Llwyndewi Isaf, Trap, Llandeilo SA19 6TT, SIC 11070); `company/spadel` (Spadel SA, BE-KBO:0405844436, LEI 213800413RZM6IS8GM09, from GLEIF and the still-Spadel-era Brecon Carreg privacy policy - that page is stale on ownership and was used only for Spadel's identity); `family/brecon-carreg-still` with the eight still sizes the bottler lists. **Photos**: `off_images` names the two uploads I actually read - front imgid 1 (339x1200) and imgid 2 (718x440) for the analysis panel; the selected nutrition photo (400x245) is the unreadable thumbnail of the same panel. Sources: the bottler's own site, Companies House, Business News Wales (23 Dec 2019 MBO) and its copy on the bottler's blog, the Snell listing, legislation.gov.uk, GLEIF, Open Food Facts and its label photos, and the 2006 Wayback capture of the old page (identity only; its "Produced in United Kingdom by Brecon Carreg Natural Waters" line is prefix-generated and was not used).. Current is v2.

| 118 | 125 | Brecon Carreg Still Natural Mineral Water is a 500 ml bottle of Welsh still natural mineral water; the front label reads "Brecon Carreg - Still - Natural Mineral Water, 500ml e".[^photo-front] The bottler draws the water in the Brecon Beacons, describes it as low in sodium and naturally filtered through rock, and sells the still range in eight sizes from 330 ml to 2 litres.[^maker] The business has been Welsh-owned since December 2019, when commercial manager David Stockley bought it from the Belgian group Spadel, which had held it for 35 years.[^mbo] Brecon Carreg Ltd is registered at Trap, Llandeilo, Carmarthenshire for the production of mineral waters, the address the brand gives for itself.[^ch][^makercontact] The pack prints neither an ingredient list nor a nutrition table, both of which a natural mineral water may omit; it prints a typical analysis in milligrams per litre instead.[^fic19][^fic29][^photo-analysis] | |
| 119 | 126 | ||
| 120 | 127 | The barcode is an old one: the original Barcodepedia already carried a page for "Still Brecon Carreg Mineral Water" under it in a capture from November 2006.[^oldpage] Open Food Facts files the record under France, but the English-only label and a Welsh shop that lists this barcode place the pack in the United Kingdom, so GB is the market recorded here.[^off][^snell] | |

## About <!--about-->
Brecon Carreg Still Natural Mineral Water is a 500 ml bottle of Welsh still natural mineral water; the front label reads "Brecon Carreg - Still - Natural Mineral Water, 500ml e".[^photo-front] The bottler draws the water in the Brecon Beacons, describes it as low in sodium and naturally filtered through rock, and sells the still range in eight sizes from 330 ml to 2 litres.[^maker] The business has been Welsh-owned since December 2019, when commercial manager David Stockley bought it from the Belgian group Spadel, which had held it for 35 years.[^mbo] Brecon Carreg Ltd is registered at Trap, Llandeilo, Carmarthenshire for the production of mineral waters, the address the brand gives for itself.[^ch][^makercontact] The pack prints neither an ingredient list nor a nutrition table, both of which a natural mineral water may omit; it prints a typical analysis in milligrams per litre instead.[^fic19][^fic29][^photo-analysis]
The barcode is an old one: the original Barcodepedia already carried a page for "Still Brecon Carreg Mineral Water" under it in a capture from November 2006.[^oldpage] Open Food Facts files the record under France, but the English-only label and a Welsh shop that lists this barcode place the pack in the United Kingdom, so GB is the market recorded here.[^off][^snell]
