Safe and Green Development Announces Strategic Plan to Unlock Shareholder Value Post-Acquisition

MIAMI, June 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Safe and Green Development Corporation (NASDAQ: SGD) announces that its wholly owned subsidiary, Resource Group US Holdings LLC ("Resource") is expanding into being able to produce high-value potting media and soil substrates through the implementation of advanced milling technology.

By leveraging Resource's exclusive license to utilize cutting-edge Microtec milling technology, patented German-engineered systems with over 90 global installations, Resource expects to move beyond commodity compost and expand into higher-value markets. The company is introducing a suite of sustainable, potentially high-margin soil products under its "Renewable Earth™" brand. By converting woody and vegetative waste into finely milled potting media and substrates, Resource may be able to access a market where product pricing can reach approximately $150 per ton, potentially up to five times the value of traditional compost offerings. A preview of the expected Renewable Earth product packaging can be seen in the image accompanying this release. 

"This product represents a potential fundamental revaluation of organic waste as a resource," said Tony Cialone, CEO of Resource Group. "We're not just managing green waste we're engineering premium, sustainable products that reduce reliance on environmentally harmful peat and imported coir while creating circular economic value."

"As we integrate Resource's proven logistics, proprietary processing capabilities, and deep regional market knowledge, we intend to unlock a scalable, environmentally responsible business model with attractive margins and robust growth potential," said David Villarreal, CEO of Safe and Green Development Corporation. "We believe Resource is positioned to lead the next generation of sustainable soil solutions supporting the horticulture, agriculture, and consumer landscaping sectors with products designed for performance, sustainability, and impact,"

The Company expects to finalize the delivery and installation of the Microtec mill in the third quarter.
