Clifton Park-Based Artesian Water Brand Begins Production

CLIFTON PARK — Realm Artesian Water, which has a bottling facility in Clifton Park, announced on Monday that it has received its New York State Department of Health certification and will thus begin full-scale production of its Adirondacks-sourced water.

From inception, Realm was designed as a fully closed-loop, vertically integrated water company. Realm owns and controls its artesian source, operates its own bottling facility, and manages its distribution network end-to-end. Realm’s water is transported directly from the source to the bottling facility, where it is bottled on site using stainless steel piping, advanced filtration, and “rigorous” quality control systems. The facility’s cleaning and sanitation processes use Realm’s own artesian water, helping to reduce exposure to outside contaminants.

“This level of integration is uncommon, particularly in the premium water category,” said Todd Kletter, CEO of Realm. “But it’s essential if you want to deliver a product with true integrity. The only thing inside our bottle is genuine Realm Artesian Water — nothing added, nothing compromised.” 

With production now underway, Realm’s initial offering will feature a 475 mL (16 oz) still water, followed by a 750 mL hospitality format designed for fine dining and luxury service environments. A sparkling water line is scheduled to launch in Q2 2026. 

An extensive sampling and placement program will begin in late February, with early distribution focused on high-end and boutique hotels, fashion houses, professional offices, wellness destinations, and premium hospitality venues.

Realm bottles exclusively in glass to preserve flavor, mineral balance, and overall quality, while reinforcing its sustainability commitments.

“We often ask a simple question — do you know where your water comes from?” Kletter said. “We can answer that with absolute certainty.”
