Karst herbs
Plants grow among stone, sun and the bora wind, which gives them a distinctive aroma and recognisable Karst character.
Zavod Borealis brings together the nature of the Karst, herbal knowledge, community events and handmade natural care products for everyday wellbeing – with a strong focus on origin, small-batch production and steam distillation with spring water.
🌍 The website is also available in Slovenian, Italian and German.
Zavod Borealis brings together the nature of the Karst, herbal knowledge, community events and carefully prepared products for natural care, wellbeing and everyday beauty.
One of our clearest points of difference is steam distillation with spring water – an important part of our origin story and the quality of our hydrolates and aromatic products.

Plants grow among stone, sun and the bora wind, which gives them a distinctive aroma and recognisable Karst character.

We use spring water in our steam distillation process. This is one of the defining Borealis differences and an important part of the origin of our hydrosols and aromatic extracts.

Through meetings and workshops we connect people, herbal knowledge and the inspiration of the Karst.

The products are presented as part of the Borealis story, herbal knowledge and small-batch craft from the Karst.

For Borealis, the Karst is a landscape of scent, light and resilient plants. Stone, bora wind, sun, dry-stone walls and herbs create a feeling that cannot be industrially manufactured.
We organise workshops, lectures and outdoor gatherings. We learn from one another and build a sustainable community.

A helpful starting point is to decide whether you are looking for an aromatic product, skincare, a home product or a gift. That makes it easier to choose between true lavender, lavandin, rosemary and other Karst botanicals.
True lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) is a good choice when you want a softer, more calming aromatic note for evening rituals, personal care or a refined gift.
Lavandin and rosemary are ideal when you want a cleaner, brighter and more invigorating aromatic experience in the home or in daily use.
Balms, macerates and selected soaps are well suited for daily care, helping soften dry skin and support simple natural care rituals.
Scented sachets, gift sets and the natural laundry detergent are practical choices when you want an authentic Karst product for the home or a thoughtful gift.
