The price range for these natural wood products starts at IDR 15,000 and up for household appliances, and IDR 6 million for complete furniture.
Choosing goods based on silicon-rich tropical biomass from rice husks and straw, Balisynwood products stem from a sense of concern about pollution to the earth: smoke from forest fires carried out by the community. This synthetic wood technology produces a variety of traditional Balinese wood crafts, such as carved doors, various ornate carvings, and various pop-arts crafts such as animal-shaped sculptures as home displays.

Finally we agreed to make a product, the different natural products with unique formulas. Serum and body care products from Winka Beauty, have finally been created,” explained Cempaka.
From a hobby to a business, these two Balinese women becomes more confident, so they dare to register to take part in the curation - as a condition for their products being accepted at the G20 Summit. They are both then very proud. Because apart from passing the curation, they can also participate in the G20 Summit.
