Abstract

Batik is a typical Indonesian cloth. Almost all regions have their own batik peculiarities as well as Banyuwangi. From the beginning of the emergence of Banyuwangi batik, several motives have emerged that have philosophical meanings. The development of Banyuwangi batik is increasingly rapid, as evidenced by the increasing number of batik craftsmen. This proves that the typical Banyuwangi batik has a selling value that is in demand by many people. However, the production of the batik craftsmen in Banyuwangi cannot be maximized due to the limited skill of using waterglass which is done manually. So that it has not been able to meet market demand optimally. This is felt by the craftsmen in the Tampo village, Cluring sub-district. Tampo is a batik village in the cluring area because of the many batik craftsmen who produce batik with their own uniqueness. As a solution to the problems faced by batik najikha as one of the batik craftsmen in Tampo, they collaborate in conducting waterglass usage skills training. Empowerment of tampo written batik craftsmen focuses on Najikha's problems, namely; 1) Use of waterglass which is still wasteful; 2) The color of the written batik is not consistent, the brightness level is not the same; 3) The need for color lock technology and tools; 4) It is necessary to transfer the coloring technology using waterglass to the Najikha group; 5) The need for training and assistance to market Banyuwangi written batik nationally; 6) The Najikha group does not yet have a written batik catalog; 7) The absence of good bookkeeping. The PKM team conducts training for craftsmen with results; 1) creation of a roll saving tool; 2) 85% of Najikha's employees are able to use the roll saving tool well; 3) 85% of the color of written batik has increased in quality, brightness and durability; 4) 75% increase in marketing by the two batik Najikha; 5) both Najikhas have batik catalogs; 6) batik Najikha has simple bookkeeping through exel; 7) A significant increase in sales turnover by 65%. Methods and stages in the application of technology: starting from the stage of the situation analysis, the identification of the problem, the use of ineffective and inefficient waterglass. The results of the PKM in the form of a roll saving tool were given to Najikha batik, who then helped market the product by creating a Salem-written batik catalog (web and social media).
