Origins in Tanah Karo
Our enterprise, Sumatra Pasak Bumi, began in 1998 in Tanah Karo, a highland region of North Sumatra shaped by forests, volcanoes, and long-standing Batak traditions.
The company was founded by members of the Marga Sembiring, a Karo Batak clan whose livelihoods had always been closely tied to the surrounding forests.
Ethnobotanical Use of Pasak Bumi
Within Karo culture, Pasak Bumi (Eurycoma longifolia) has long been used in traditional jamu herbal preparations.
From Local Trade to International Export
By the end of the 1990s, Sumatra Pasak Bumi supplied Tongkat Ali in bulk to processors in Europe.
Quality Standards and Regulatory Compliance
In today’s market, dominated by ever-cheaper products labeled as Tongkat Ali, Sumatra Pasak Bumi remains committed to supplying original government-approved, standardized, third-party lab-tested Tongkat Ali extracts without excipients or efficacy-neutral substitutes.
