Recent rises in construction material prices have drawn attention\nfrom various business sectors, including property and construction.\nFluctuations in prices of materials such as cement, iron, steel, and\nothers are seen as potentially affecting project planning across\nregions.<\/p>\n
In Kendal Regency, the phenomenon has caught the eye of the Kendal\nChapter of the Indonesian Young Entrepreneurs Association (HIPMI). The\nyouth business organisation deems material price stability a crucial\nfactor in sustaining property investment and growth in the area.<\/p>\n
Material price uncertainty not only impacts construction costs but\nalso influences investor confidence in business decisions. In the long\nterm, this could slow project implementation, which otherwise would\nbring economic benefits to communities and regions.<\/p>\n
Dani Satria, Head of Department X (Infrastructure, Spatial Planning,\nProperty and Transport) at HIPMI Kendal, stated that while businesses\ncan adapt to market dynamics, stability remains essential for a healthy\ninvestment climate.<\/p>\n
\u201cInvestors do not merely seek low costs but require certainty. When\nmaterial prices fluctuate excessively, investment calculations become\nmore complex and investor caution increases,\u201d said Dani Satria in\nKendal, Central Java, on Monday, 1 June 2026.<\/p>\n
According to Dani, the property sector has a significant multiplier\neffect on regional economies, involving industries like building\nmaterials, construction services, transport, and local labour, all\naffected by the sector\u2019s growth or slowdown.<\/p>\n
\u201cMaterial price stability is not just a concern for developers or\ncontractors but also linked to sustainable regional economic growth. A\nmore conducive business environment increases investment opportunities\nand creates new jobs for the public,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
HIPMI Kendal calls for collaboration between government, businesses,\nand stakeholders to maintain balance in the construction materials\nmarket. Measures such as strengthening supply chains, improving\ndistribution efficiency, and developing domestic building materials\nindustries are part of long-term solutions.<\/p>\n
Amid global economic challenges, HIPMI Kendal remains optimistic\nabout Indonesia\u2019s property and construction prospects, particularly in\nKendal Regency, which is developing as an industrial and investment hub.\nWith stable material prices and adaptive policies, the property sector\nis expected to remain a key driver of regional economic growth in the\nfuture.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/material-price-stability-key-to-maintaining-property-investment-climate-1780311074", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
