Everyone who has written about us.

What they wrote

Until this page was rewritten it named only who had written about us. Below are their actual sentences. All of them verbatim, from pieces we opened one by one over HTTPS on 11 August 2026 — 25 of the 28 verified links. The remaining three were not read for this purpose: an industry database, a channel of our own, and a government directory that refuses automated clients. Each quotation is given in the original Indonesian, with our English translation beneath it.

• Tidak seperti buku catatan buatan pabrik, keunikan hibrkraft ini terletak pada penggarapannya yang manual dan asli buatan tangan.

How those sentences were chosen

One rule: the sentence has to be the writer’s own judgement. A “…” means we cut the sentence at its start or its end, never in the middle. Two groups of sentences were deliberately not used, and you should know both exist.

The repeated paragraph. Eight of the 25 pieces we read carry a near-identical sentence — “UMKM yang bergerak terutama di bidang pembuatan jurnal/agenda kulit dan paket branding/merchandise”. Four of them also carry “dua lini: Personal dan Institusi”, three carry “dari Sabang sampai Merauke”, and seven carry exactly the same list of export countries. A sentence appearing eight times comes from one source, not from eight observations, and counting it as eight independent confirmations would be wrong. We quoted none of them above.

Comment threads. Some of the warmest sentences on those pages were written by readers rather than by the author. Quoting them as though they were the author’s would misattribute them.

Where those records disagree with us

Reading all of them again brought up something a list of links alone does not show: third-party records do not agree about us.

Year founded

10 of 25 say 2013; 9 say 2011. Both hold part of the truth — 2011 is when the work began, May 2013 when the Hibrkraft name was formally adopted. Jeyjingga writes both at once, “Dirintis sejak 2011, dan menjadi Hibrkraft sejak 2013” — started in 2011, and became Hibrkraft in 2013 — and that is the most accurate of them.

Place

15 of 25 say Bojonggede. Our workshop is now in Cileungsi, Bogor Regency, and the public address we use is “Bogor, Indonesia”. Those pieces were not wrong at the time; we moved.

Export countries

7 of 25 say Germany, the Netherlands, Canada, Australia and the United Arab Emirates. The figures board on this page says four countries: UAE, Malaysia, Canada, Germany. Two different lists, and we have not reconciled them. Until we do, use the fact sheet rather than a piece from 2021.

We include this because a press page carrying only the pleasant sentences is not a record but a brochure.
