Origin — Orafe, Est. 2021
Foundation Notes
The Orafe record begins in Jakarta, 2021 — where a gap between daily mineral requirements and available nutritional supplement options prompted the establishment of a formulation studio focused on men's wellness.
Jakarta, 2021
"There is a quiet logic to how the body uses minerals across a working day — a logic that resists the language of quick results."
Orafe was founded after three years of observing patterns in nutritional intake among men with demanding physical schedules in Jakarta. The observation was consistent: between the structure of a working week, regular physical activity, and the variable quality of available food-supplement products, daily mineral balance was rarely complete.
The founding team — combining backgrounds in applied nutrition research and regional supply-chain management — began with a straightforward brief: develop a premium men's vitamins complex that could be documented from ingredient origin to finished batch, without claim inflation or unnecessary complexity.
The first Orafe daily complex formulation was archived in March 2022 under document reference OR-FA-01. It contained twelve active ingredients, anchored by zinc and magnesium, with supporting micronutrients selected on the basis of published nutritional research — not marketing convention.
Since that initial release, the Orafe formulation has been reviewed annually. Each revision is logged with a reference number and dated. The current version — OR-FA-04 — entered circulation in early 2024 following an updated elemental concentration calibration.

What guides the Orafe record
Documentation First
Every production lot carries a batch record linking back to supplier certificates of composition. Traceability is not optional — it is the operating standard from which all formulation decisions follow.
Measured Composition
Ingredient ratios are calibrated against daily reference intake values established in published nutritional research. The Orafe daily complex does not inflate ingredient quantities for label impact.
Independent Verification
Ingredient profiles in Orafe supplements are selected based on published nutritional research and undergo independent batch verification for quality and labelling accuracy.
Regional Sourcing
Active ingredients are sourced from documented suppliers across Southeast Asian and European mineral-rich regions. Origin is logged per ingredient, per batch — not per product category.
Annual Revision Cycle
The Orafe formulation is reviewed on an annual schedule. Revisions incorporate updated nutritional research, supplier audit outcomes, and elemental concentration recalibration where indicated.
Specialist Guidance
We recommend speaking with a qualified wellness or nutrition professional before introducing any supplement to your daily routine, particularly if you have specific dietary requirements.
