Notes on this panel

Printed under a heading naming the Laborunion analysis; the photographed table lists sodium, magnesium, calcium, chloride and sulphate.

Nutrition panel

basis not printed[9]

No nutrition declaration required according to the recorded evidence. Natural mineral water under Directive 2009/54/EC; Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 Article 29(1) puts such waters outside the nutrition declaration Section.

Notes on this panel

The label photographs show a mineral analysis in place of a nutrition table. Open Food Facts carries zeroes typed by contributors, not label figures.

About this product

Saskia is the own-label mineral water of the German discounter Lidl, and this one-way PET bottle is the carbonated Classic sort from the Löningen spring in Lower Saxony.[2][3] The front band reads "CLASSIC mit Kohlensäure", and the label states that the water suits a low-sodium diet; with 14,9 mg sodium, 29,2 mg calcium and 32,1 mg hydrogen carbonate per litre it is a very lightly mineralised water.[4][5][6] It is filled by MEG Weißenfels, which bottles Saskia for Lidl at five German spring sites and names Löningen among them; the 2020 back label printed the company's earlier name, Mitteldeutsche Erfrischungsgetränke, at its Langendorfer Straße address in Weißenfels.[7][1]

Photographs from 2020 and 2021 show two label generations. The 2020 silver label carried the DLG "Jährlich prämiert" medal and a five-figure analysis with 12,8 mg sodium per litre; the 2021 label lists eight ions with higher sodium, calcium and chloride figures.[3][5][6] MEG's composition sheet for the spring, dated December 2021, matches the 2021 label and adds a total mineralisation of 162 mg/l, a pH of 6,5 and a hardness of 4,8 °dH.[8]

Where it's sold

Coverage & research gaps (14)

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

  • Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
  • Context: 3 / 4 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
  • Label photographs: 0 / 3 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
  • German silver label with DLG medal, 2020: nutrient evidence: 5 / 5 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • German label "CLASSIC mit Kohlensäure", 2021: nutrient evidence: 8 / 8 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • MEG composition sheet for the Löningen spring: nutrient evidence: 17 / 17 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • Specifications: 1 / 2 · 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.
  • identity · unknown: Net content: the photographed label crops of this barcode do not show the volume, and Open Food Facts records the quantity as "1pcs". MEG fills Saskia Classic in 1,5 l and 0,5 l bottles; on Open Food Facts the neighbouring Saskia numbers 42376156, 42376163, 42376187 and 42376194 are 0,5 l and 42376057 and 42376064 are 1,5 l.
  • images · disputed: Open Food Facts photo 4 (uploaded 2020-11-06) filed under this barcode shows a 1,5 l Saskia Classic whose side band reads "Quelle Wörth am Rhein", a sibling article with its own barcode (42143628); it is left out of this page.
  • markets · unknown: Searched amazon.de on 2026-09-25 for "Saskia Mineralwasser Classic Löningen": the Saskia Classic listings are 8 x 1,5 l and 16 x 1,5 l multipacks, none naming the Löningen spring, so no listing of this bottle.
  • ingredients · unknown: The full back-label denomination sentence of the 2021 label is outside the photographed crops.
