The Arvelo methodology is a five-stage process applied identically to every production lot. No batch enters distribution without completing all five stages and generating a corresponding archive entry.
Supplier Selection
Supplier relationships are established through an audit process that evaluates the facility's ability to produce batch-level documentation. The primary requirement is the capacity to generate a certificate of composition for each delivery, signed by a qualified analyst and cross-referenced to a specific production run.
Active ingredients are sourced from documented suppliers, with each batch accompanied by a certificate of composition. Sourcing prioritises suppliers whose facilities maintain food-grade processing standards.
Suppliers are reviewed annually. New suppliers undergo an extended qualification period before any ingredient from their facility enters the Arvelo formulation stream.
Incoming Inspection
Each delivery of raw ingredients undergoes an incoming inspection before entering the studio's storage. The certificate of composition from the supplier is reviewed against the Arvelo ingredient specification. Any deviation from the agreed specification triggers a non-conformance record and initiates a hold on the affected lot.
Physical inspection confirms that packaging integrity is maintained, batch markings are legible and match the accompanying documentation, and cold-chain conditions were maintained in transit where applicable.
Lots that pass incoming inspection are assigned an Arvelo intake number and entered into the raw-material register. Lots that fail are returned to the supplier with a written non-conformance record.
Formulation
Formulation follows the current revision of the Arvelo composition specification. Ingredient weights are recorded against a formulation batch record, with each operator sign-off retained in the archive. The composition specification is version-controlled: changes require a formal revision entry with rationale notes and an effective date.
The current Arvelo Daily specification is Revision 02, effective March 2021. The single change from Revision 01 was an adjustment to selenium concentration, documented in archive entry ARV-REV-02.
Encapsulation uses a food-grade capsule shell. No artificial fillers, binders, or flow agents are used in the Arvelo Daily composition. The full ingredient list — including all excipients — is printed on the label.
Independent Verification
Each finished production lot is submitted to an independent laboratory for elemental analysis. Ingredient profiles in Arvelo supplements are selected based on published nutritional research and undergo independent batch verification for quality and labelling accuracy.
The laboratory report is reviewed against the label specification for each major active ingredient. If a result falls outside the stated tolerance (±10% of the labelled concentration), the lot is placed on hold and a root-cause investigation is initiated. Lots are not released until all major ingredients confirm within tolerance.
The independent laboratory is selected from a panel of accredited analytical facilities. Arvelo does not use in-house laboratory results as the sole basis for a lot release decision — external verification is always required.
Archive and Release
A lot that passes independent verification enters the archive as a complete record: incoming inspection records, formulation batch record, operator sign-offs, supplier certificates, and the independent laboratory report. The lot number printed on each container links the product to this archive entry.
Archive retention is a minimum of five years from the date of lot release. Readers who wish to request the batch documentation for a product they have purchased may do so by contacting the Arvelo team with the lot number from the container label.
Release authorization is signed by the studio's formulation lead. No lot enters distribution without a signed release record in the archive.
Supplier Qualification
Criteria
A supplier is considered qualified for the Arvelo ingredient pool when it can demonstrate the following as a minimum: the ability to provide a certificate of composition for each delivery, referencing a named analyst; documentation of the processing environment that indicates food-grade standards are maintained; and a track record of consistent specification compliance across a minimum of three consecutive deliveries.
Preferred suppliers additionally provide: named-region material origin, access to their own quality management documentation on request, and a designated point of contact for non-conformance resolution.
What the Arvelo
Standard Excludes
Suppliers who cannot provide batch-level documentation. Generic certificates of analysis covering an entire product category rather than a specific production run are not acceptable.
Ingredient sources whose origin cannot be documented at least to the country and processing-facility level.
Proprietary blend ingredients where individual concentrations cannot be listed on the finished-product label.
Artificial fillers, synthetic flow agents, or undisclosed excipients not printed on the label.
Label Accuracy
The primary verification objective is confirmation that each listed ingredient is present at the concentration stated on the label. The ±10% tolerance is applied to all major active ingredients. Micronutrients at trace concentrations are verified for presence rather than exact concentration.
Contaminant Screening
Selected lots are submitted for heavy metal screening in addition to elemental concentration analysis. The screening panel covers lead, cadmium, mercury, and arsenic. Results are reviewed against the applicable food-supplement regulatory limits for Indonesia.
Dissolution Profile
The capsule formulation is evaluated for dissolution characteristics to confirm that the encapsulated ingredients are accessible at the expected rate. This verification is performed on a rolling schedule rather than for every lot.
"The archive is not a compliance formality. It is the record of what was made, how it was made, and what the independent analysis found. Every lot entry is a complete, retrievable document set."
