MIAMI, FL, Dec. 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Safe and Green Development Corporation (NASDAQ: SGD) (“SGD” or the “Company”) today announced that it has secured delivery of the patented Micotec Mill, a proprietary milling system for which the Company previously obtained exclusive utilization rights. Delivery is currently expected in March 2026. The Company anticipates the mill will significantly enhance the capabilities and support the Company’s ongoing strategy to expand its materials processing segment across soil and environmental product lines.

Strengthening Processing Capabilities
The Micotec Mill incorporates a patented milling process designed to refine organic materials with controlled precision. The Company holds exclusive utilization rights to this technology, positioning it to deploy the mill in applications that require uniform particle sizing, improved material handling characteristics, and consistent soil and media formulation. With delivery secured for March 2026, the Micotec Mill represents a cornerstone of the Company’s plan to advance its materials processing operations through proprietary, defensible technology.
Once installed, the Mill is expected to expand the Company’s ability to produce high-quality soil and growing media products while enhancing internal manufacturing efficiency and reducing reliance on outside refiners. These capabilities align with the Company’s long-term strategy to build a more robust, vertically integrated processing model.
The addition of the Micotec Mill is expected to:
- Support the development of expanded soil and growing media products
- Improve product uniformity through controlled milling specifications
- Increase internal processing capacity and reduce reliance on third-party refiners
- Advance a more vertically integrated operating model for the Company
Diamond Z and Komptech Systems Now Fully Operational
To prepare for the integration of the Micotec Mill, the Company has already acquired and commissioned two major processing systems that support upstream material preparation:
- Diamond Z Horizontal Grinder: Enhances processing capacity for wood waste and green waste, supporting upstream material preparation for composting and mulch products.
- Komptech Shredder: Increases throughput for mixed organic and recycled materials and supports blending operations that feed into soil and media production lines.
Both systems are fully operational and contributing to higher daily throughput at the Company’s facilities. Together with the forthcoming Micotec Mill, these processing assets form an integrated equipment suite designed to enhance the Company’s material preparation, sizing, and production capabilities.
Exclusive Technology Rights Reinforce Long-Term Strategy
The Company holds exclusive rights within the United States to utilize the patented Micotec milling technology, strengthening its competitive position in the environmental materials sector. With delivery secured and supporting systems now in place, the Company is progressing toward a more advanced processing platform centered around proprietary technology, enhanced operational efficiency, and scalable production.
“The equipment we placed into service this year, together with the Micotec Mill expected in 2026, positions the Company to expand its processing capabilities and strengthen its product offerings,” said David Villarreal, CEO of Safe and Green Development Corporation.
Future Expansion Potential
The Company expects the first Micotec Mill installation to occur at the Company’s primary green waste facility located at Myakka City, Florida. Over time, additional mills may be deployed across other sites as the Company seeks to expand its geographic presence and evaluates opportunities to scale material volumes and product lines. Any such deployments will be based on performance, market demand, and capital planning.
Projected Timeline
Delivery of the Micotec Mill is expected in March 2026. Following delivery, the Company plans to begin commissioning, testing, and a phased production ramp. Additional updates will be provided through the Company’s future quarterly communications.
