About this product

Saskia is the own-label mineral water of the German discounter Lidl, and this 1.5-litre one-way PET bottle is the carbonated Classic sort drawn from the Saskia spring at Wörth am Rhein in Rhineland-Palatinate.[2][3] The label sells it as natural mineral water with carbon dioxide added, states that it suits a low-sodium diet, and reproduces an extract from the officially recognised analysis by Laborunion Prof. Höll & Co. GmbH of Bad Elster dated 10 January 2012.[3] It is filled by MEG Weißenfels GmbH & Co. KG, which bottles Saskia for Lidl at five German spring sites and whose earlier name, Mitteldeutsche Erfrischungsgetränke GmbH & Co. KG, is the operator printed on the pack read here.[4][5][6] The barcode is an EAN-8, allocated individually rather than from a company prefix.

The number was already catalogued by the first Barcodepedia in 2007, as "Saskia Quelle", described simply as Lidl mineral water.[7] Photographs from 2015 to 2026 show one recipe and three label generations: the denomination is unchanged throughout, while the printed analysis table gained potassium, fluoride, chloride and sulphate by 2021, the bottle body moved to 100 % recycled plastic by 2022, and the 2026 redesign brought the spring name and the low-sodium claim onto the front of the label.[8][1][9]

Where it's sold

  • Supermarktcheck [10] Germany EUR 0.29 · new · derived Price-reporting page for "Saskia Mineralwasser Classic" in a 1.5 l plastic bottle, last reported at Lidl; it prints no barcode, and Saskia Classic is filled at five springs under separate barcodes, so the listing may describe a sibling.
  • German-only label whose back panel carries this barcode beside the German one-way deposit mark "0,25 € Einweg Pfand", the Lidl wordmark and www.lidl.de; the deposit is required by the German Verpackungsgesetz.[1] Germany · printed Made in Germany

A listing is evidence that this barcode is sold there, on that date; a price is what that listing showed, not a recommended price. Store links may be affiliate links (how this works).

Coverage & research gaps (17)

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.

  • Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
  • Context: 4 / 5 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
  • Label photographs: 0 / 4 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
  • German label, photographed 2015: nutrient evidence: 6 / 6 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • German label, expanded analysis table: nutrient evidence: 8 / 8 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • Specifications: 1 / 3 · Recorded specifications mapped to comparable property keys
  • relationships · not_applicable: This is an EAN-8. GS1 Germany allocates GTIN-8 numbers one at a time rather than out of a company prefix, so there is no prefix to attribute and no gs1_prefix_owner row; no source names the licensee of this individual number.
  • nutrition · not_researched: Only the front of the 2026 label generation has been photographed. The mineral analysis transcribed here comes from the 2021 label; whether the figures or the analysis date changed on the current pack is unknown.
  • markets · unknown: Lidl publishes no GTIN and its product page for the 1.5 l bottle (lidl.de/p/saskia-mineralwasser-1-5-l/p6262501) answers 404, so no retailer listing printing this barcode was found; the German price row rests on a user-reported price aggregator.
  • identity · disputed: MEG fills Saskia Classic at five springs (Leißling, Löningen, Jessen, Kirkel, Wörth am Rhein) under separate barcodes. This number is the Wörth am Rhein filling per the printed label, but siblings 0000042143529 and 0000020030995 carry the same brand, sort and net content, so sources that name no spring cannot be assigned to this pack.
  • relationships · disputed: North Data records MEG being acquired by "Schwarz Produktion GmbH & Co. KG" on 2020-07-07, while GLEIF and MEG's own imprint credits name "Schwarz Produktion Stiftung & Co. KG"; GLEIF files no parent record for MEG, so the step between the two names is not directly evidenced.
  • markets · unknown: Searched amazon.de on 2026-09-17 for "Saskia Classic Natural Mineral Water 1,5 l", the brand alone ("saskia", also "saskia mineralwasser" and "saskia quelle wasser"), and 000042143628: no listing of this article; Saskia is Lidl's private-label water, so no Amazon storefront carries it. The full-name search returned 5 fuzzy matches, all other brands (Aqua Carpatica 12 x 1.5 l, Mondariz 12 x 1.5 l, Quezac 6 x 1.15 l, Volvic 6 x 1.5 l); the bare brand search returned ~16.6k results that are all books, notebooks
