The selection of an official mineral water partner for the BWF World Tour Super 1000 event involves a stringent process. Achmad Budiharto, the Chief Executive Organizer of the Indonesia Open 2026, emphasized the importance of choosing a reliable partner. "We select mineral water partners that have guaranteed quality, meet food safety standards, contain good minerals, and are produced through a hygienic and consistent process," Budiharto stated.
When athletes exercise, a lot of energy and heat are generated, requiring ample fluids and minerals. Mineral intake is crucial for accelerating recovery and eliminating byproducts of energy production, such as delayed onset muscle soreness, stiffness, or weakness.
Le Minerale was chosen for meeting these criteria, with PBSI (the Indonesian Badminton Association) recognizing its ability to provide safe drinking water and support the high physical demands of athletes. Dr. Carmen Jahya, Head of Health for the Indonesia Open 2026, explained the critical role of hydration and mineral intake. "When athletes exercise, a lot of energy and heat are generated, requiring ample fluids and minerals. Mineral intake is crucial for accelerating recovery and eliminating byproducts of energy production, such as delayed onset muscle soreness, stiffness, or weakness," she noted.
I choose Le Minerale because its mineral content is clear, the taste is fresh, and it has long supported me and PBSI.
