🌿 Supplier Spotlight: Quarnero
One of the loveliest things about working in sustainability is meeting people who care for the land the same way wellness practitioners care for the body and mind. The two worlds share the same heart: patience, respect for natural rhythms, and a belief that quality comes from doing things properly rather than quickly.
Quarnero, an organic skincare house based in Ičići on Croatia’s Kvarner coast, is a beautiful example of this. What began in the 1970s as a family herb garden, tended by founder’s grandmother Roza, has grown into a NATRUE certified, vegan approved range of face and body oils and bath salts, crafted with Mediterranean herbs sourced from the Kvarner islands’ unique microclimate.
Their professional spa line blends organic cold-pressed sesame oil with essential oils of bergamot, lavender, rosemary and geranium, packaged in violet Miron glass to protect potency naturally. It already features in properties including Hotel St. George Helsinki, Hilton Costabella Resort & Spa Rijeka and Hotel Bellevue Lošinj.
Quarnero’s slow, small-batch philosophy and family heritage make them a genuine fit for hospitality brands seeking wellness partners with real sustainability credentials. 🌊
