Extrusion & Technology Development

Every building site is built on earth. A majority of that earth can be characterized and stabilized for printing into suitable wall assemblies for that location. What is local to you? What extrusions can be developed from the resources around you? We can help. 

The world of stabilized earth and earthen building is as old as the need for dwellings. We are in the process of securing funding to set up a methodology and framework to characterize and enhance local materials (like on site clay, recycled cellulose, agricultural waste, and more) to achieve structural extrusions with sophisticated thermal properties. As with all projects, we consider protection and regeneration of the environment a major factor, as we develop accessible options for food and living security.

We know hempcrete. We've been building with it for years, helping it get permits and approvals in local structures, teaching workshops, and building unique projects like greenhouses, saunas, and tiny homes. 

We've developed a hempcrete extrusion for 3D construction printing (3DCP) . Much more coming in 2024.

Our 3D construction printer can print objects in a 4-foot x 4-foot x 4-foot space. We are happy to collaborate and work with your projects. Are you looking to develop some 3D construction designs? We can help, from prototyping to printing, as well as specialized extrusion considerations.

We specialize in technical documentation, data collection, and on-site testing.

We hope to have some exciting news for 2024! If you are looking for a full scale construction build with alternative materials let us know and we can put together the concept and project.
