On May 9-12, 2024, we participated in the annual KERAMIKA exhibition which was held at the Jakarta Convention Center in Jakarta. During the 4-day event, we had the pleasure of closely engaging with our customers, business partners, and visitors in general, as we especially seek to further introduce and expand upon our two fresh, high quality, flagship products: ARNA Granite and UNO Rectified.
On the first day of the event, our COO Mr. Edy Suyanto in his capacity as the Chairman of the Indonesian Ceramics Industry Association also featured in the opening ceremony. In his speech, he highlighted KERAMIKA in this tenth edition as proof that the industry is still able to maintain consistency, commitment and resilience amid a somewhat unfavorable global economic conditions.
The decline in purchasing power, the inflow of imported tiles, and the disturbances to natural gas supplies have not been able to break the spirit of the ceramics industry as the industry continues to contribute and innovate in meeting the national demand for building materials. Mr. Edy Suyanto also elaborated upon recent dynamics and developments in the industry, covering trade and regulatory issues.
Overall, our booth received plenty of interest, and as icing on the cake, our booth was also among the booths that were awarded Best Booth Design at the conclusion of the event.
