Responsibility
starts at the source
For more than 150 years, we have been providing mineral waters and beverages that form part of the daily lives of millions of people. That is why we strive to ensure that our business delivers long-term value not only to our customers, but also to society and the environment.
Mattoni 1873 is the largest producer of non-alcoholic beverages in Central Europe. For more than 150 years, we have been providing consumers with mineral water, soft drinks, and other popular brands. Our products are part of the everyday lives of millions of people and that is why we strive to ensure that our business delivers long-term value not only to our customers, but also to society and the environment.
This is reflected in a wide range of our activities – from protecting water in the landscape and promoting biodiversity, through the circular economy and deposit return systems for packaging, to caring for our employees and supporting young talents, culture, sports, and education.

Nature and resources
We measure the impact in order to reduce it
Reducing the environmental impact of our business has long been an integral part of our strategy. We regularly monitor our carbon footprint and based on the collected data, we adopt measures that lead to more efficient energy usage, more sustainable production, and limiting transport emissions. Within our group, we calculate our carbon footprint using SAP SFM in accordance with the international GHG Protocol standards.
The circular economy and deposit return systems
We consider the responsible management of packaging as an integral part of our business. That is why we support the principles of the circular economy and, since 2018, we have been standing behind the Zálohujme.cz initiative, which aids in the development of a deposit return system for beverage packaging through awareness-raising activities, educational programmes, and voluntary projects.
Rudi Mattoni’s Meadows
The natural resources from which our mineral waters originate are closely intertwined with the health of the surrounding landscape. As part of the ‘Rudi Mattoni’s Meadows’ project launched in collaboration with the Czech Union for Nature Conservation, we are restoring meadows and natural habitats in the vicinity of our plants. Diverse ecosystems are thus gradually emerging across more than 18 hectares, supporting the return of pollinators, amphibians, and native plant species.

People and communities
Our aim is not only to be a beverage manufacturer, but also an active partner to the communities, customers and institutions with whom we share a common future.
An environment in which one can grow
People are an integral part of our business – from our employees and customers to the various communities where we operate. That is why we create a safe and fair working environment for our employees, and we support their health, personal development, as well as work-life balance. We believe that long-term success is built on respect and a responsible approach to the people who are part of our story.
Mattoni 1873 Talents
We firmly believe that the future belongs to talented people who have the courage to come up with new ideas. That is why we have created the Mattoni 1873 Talents platform, which connects young creators, students and early-career professionals with industry experts and helps them further develop their potential. We support young fashion designers, filmmakers, musicians, and students, and we create opportunities that enable them to turn their ideas into real projects.
Culture and sports, which we have long supported
For many years, we have also been supporting major cultural, sporting, and social projects. We are proud partners of the RunCzech running series, the Český lev film awards, the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival, and the prestigious Magnesia Litera book awards.
Where we operate
We devote the same attention to the regions where we operate. We support culture, sports and education, we collaborate with organisations that help people in difficult life situations, and we preserve the heritage of places linked to the history of our brands.
Our relationship with our customers goes beyond simply offering refreshing drinks. We believe that water has the power to improve the quality of life – not only through its taste and invigorating effects, but also through the information, balance, and daily habits that support long-term health.
