New Sign Boad HORAS !

More than half a year has passed since I moved Horas Indonesia's office to Ungasan from Kuta 's Majapahit Street.

I was indecisive as to where I should put the signboard and how to design it.
Then time has gone by and on.....

The design was decided at last, ordered materials and construction.

HORAS logo with white paint is clearly emerging on the background with walls randomly arranged with Candy Stone's black and red.
Candy stone has acrylic coating.

Although it located just behind the famous Tourist Spot GWK, people sometimes find a difficult to find us. That's why I decided to installed a signboard at the intersection of Jl.Merak I and Jl. Pemukiman.

Since that, people more easy to find us and the road also became bright at night with this!

Come and visit us. You can find samples of natural stone in our office as well.

MARBLE FROM TULUNGAGUNG - EAST JAWA

I went to Tulungagung.

 
Tulungagung is a small town located in the East Java South coast area, but almost near the Central Java. It takes three and a half hours from Denpasar to Gilimanuk Harbor, by Car, and then take a ferry to cross Bali Strait to Banyuwangi, East Java. Then continue the journey around 12 hours more from Banyuwangi to get to Tulungagung. It was a pretty hard drive.

 









 
Turungagung is one of the famous Natural stone product, such as Marble and Andesit in Java.
To be exact,It seems not marble but limestone actually.











 
This time we got order from Australia, bush hammer finish Marble. So We went to Tulungagung for the inspections.

 
 Most of all factories in Tulungagung are small factories, and cutting accuracy is bad to say honestly. Even in that, We will find a factory that will listen to my detailed orders, from the choice of materials to the checking of the precision of the cutting and management of the finished stone one by one.







 





Once it's done, it will ready to be delivered to the warehouse in Bali where the process of packing in crate will be done there.

Container stuffing finally has been done this weekend.
We will safely arrive at your house and wish you a nice finish.

Big rain. Delay of stone block supply

I have to inform you that according to the news, the fuel price increases in the last month of the blog.

Without any major disruption, as usual traffic jams,  

It becomes to December without major changes.

But, climate was slightly different from previous years in Indonesia this year.

 

Previous years, in Indonesia will begin to rain in October.

But,in this year, it has started to rain from the beginning of December, it's heavy rain.

When you finally think it started to rain, it is extremely a lot of rain.

Last week, in the Central Java of Banjarnegara, 

landslides occurred in size of approximately 10 hectares. 

About 100 people were now missing. .   BBC NEWS

 

Current search dogs also participated, has continued to search activities  

but the mud make process of searching seems to be difficult.

In the quarry where stone materials will be taken , block of raw materials can not be proceed

because of the impact of heavy rain.

Candi Stone and Palimanan Stone of other, lime stone, Kinari, etc.

The government has recommended to citizens to not  approaching the loose area of the rivers and land. Of course it caused effect for the Natural Stone schedule of processing.
For this reasons, there might be got some delay during the rainy season until March.

For the customers, we recommended to arrange the order time with enough margin of time to avoid any crucial delay of supply.

From today, fuel price is increased

The Indonesian government announced the increasing of fuel costs yesterday November 17th, and be in forced to be effective today. 

Gasoline is into 8500 rupiah from 6500 rupiah per liter

Light oil became a 7500 rupiah per liter.

 

Rates are revised from November 18th early morning. 

 
In this morning,  people who refuel gasoline  on the way to their work got surprised !

Enforce of such fuel cost price hike in Indonesia, in this way you will always suddenly done.

web site Bloomberg

However, since previously had been rumored to was "9500 price increase in rupiah", 

The actual price increase lower than expected,  

This increasing price of the fuel shocked the citizen. But there is also a rumor that this increasing price is a step wise.


The rise nearly 30% higher than ever, because the transportation cost has gone up, and raise the price of our products.

The tax was using to subsidizes the fuel until now. By reducing the subsidies, we hope the government's policy will be adjusted in infrastructure for better future.

Thank you for your understanding.

BALI'S ORIGINAL LAVA STONE "CANDI BALI"

"CANDI BALI"

Candi Bali is kind of Lava stone, the quarry is located in the

foot of mt.Agung, the Holy mountain of Bali Hindu.

PT.HORAS INDONESIA sell 2 kinds of Lava stone,

one is from Mt.Merapi, central Java, and the second is from Bali.

The both stones is very high absorptive water retention,

It is suitable to installed on the pool side floor or balcony, because

of floor wet is slippery, but the Candi stone is hard to slip.

Candi Bali stone is indispensable to the life of the Balinese people, 

it is used in the construction of the Traditional Balinese Hindu temple. 


because they believe the Candi Bali stone has spiritual power, from Mt.Agung. 

In Bali, use Candi Bali stone is Bvulgari Resort. 

Installed with mosaic style on the floor at the lobby.

MOST INTEREST ITEM FOR LUXURY VILLA BALI KEROBOKAN STONE

Such as Bvulgari Resort and Alila Soori, Sophisticated design luxury villa in Bali,
Kerobokan Stone which is used in construction of luxury villas. Within the inhabitants of Bali, it is called as Paras Kerobokan.
Kerobokan Stone is a popular stone to customers, such as Europe and the Middle East as well as customers in Japan.

Rough surface has a natural atmosphere, and on light brown stone grained motif has entered a delicate atmosphere. It's really fashionable installed on mosaic like the photograph.


 It is a rough stone but when you installing with the mosaic, the rough cutting quality is not suitable. Normally we installing with cutting on site in Bali, but It must be make adjustments while cutting on site. On the Japan or other country's site often difficult in relation to cost. Therefore, we processing by our side before shipping. I think there will be more expensive than the local quality stone, but will be cheaper if you take into account re-cutting adjustments on site.

 In packaging, we calculate in advance how the stone of several sizes packed in boxes or go further,
I will carefully packed one by one, so soft stone. Of course, I also decorated fumigated wooden crate packing for export.

 We have a suggestion to suit your application and budget, such as in stone other than Kerobokan Stone.
