galvanina group
Galvanina has a fascinating ancient history. Situated on the slopes of Paradise Hill, where ancient Roman baths once stood, Galvanina takes its name from the eponymous mineral water spring. It is here that a centuries-long journey began throughout the territory of Rimini.
The Renaissance
The symbol of Galvanina
The coat of arms, a symbol of Galvanina, is that of the noble family who once owned the mineral water spring. It is carved on a monumental, 16th- century fountain and according to tradition, was designed by none other than the great Italian painter, architect and art historian, Giorgio Vasari.

Located in the hills near Rimini, the premises are built near the historical Galvanina spring, which gives its name to the company. Construction of the industrial plant dates back to 1928, but bottling activity had actually begun at the turn of the century. As well as being where Galvanina’s management offices are located, the plant continues to produce and bottle natural and sparkling mineral water and both organic and conventional soft drinks.

The San Giuliano plant is also located near Rimini, at the eponymous source that takes its name from the Christian martyr, St Julian. Initially a source that merely supplied locals, it is now a production and bottling plant for natural and sparkling mineral water and both organic and conventional soft drinks.
