This photo was taken at the Asiatic Fruit Juice aerated water factory, which was in Sungei Siput. Does anyone know if the factory is still there? Perhaps abandoned, or converted into something else?
‘Sinalco’ is said to beĀ an abbreviation of theĀ LatinĀ sine alcohole, which means “without alcohol”. Sinalco is the oldest soft drink brand in Europe (it was first marketed in 1902!), and is produced by Sinalco International, Germany.
Perhaps the advertisement might give you a clue as to how these bottles of non-alcoholic drinks looked like back then.
