    In October 2010, Norwegian television station TV 2 showed a documentary film highlighting that the water bottled by Voss is tap water from the municipal water supply in Iveland. TV 2 also claimed to prove that the water source was not, in fact, artesian, as Voss water's marketing claims. The Voss water website claims that the water source is "protected from pollutants by layers of rock and ice". There is in fact no permanent ice in the vicinity of the water source. Voss water responded with a statement on its website challenging TV 2's claims. The company also employed a high-profile Norwegian solicitor to consider legal action against TV 2. The TV channel in turn responded that they stood by all the statements in the film.
