Orthomol dietary supplements

Orthomol is a prominent German health company founded in 1991 by Kristian Glagau and Hans Dietl in Langenfeld, Germany. The brand is well-known for pioneering the concept of orthomolecular nutritional medicine in Europe, focusing on high-dosage vitamin and mineral combinations designed to support specific health conditions or general well-being.

The products are primarily manufactured in Germany, specifically at the company's headquarters in Langenfeld. This centralizes production and quality control to meet strict European pharmaceutical and food safety standards.

Orthomol remains a family-owned business. Following the passing of the founder Kristian Glagau, the company continued under the leadership of the Glagau family, specifically Nils Glagau. As of 2024 and moving forward into 2026, the company maintains its independence and private ownership, avoiding acquisition by larger pharmaceutical conglomerates, which allows it to maintain its specialized focus on nutritional science.
