A printer lays down concrete layer by layer inside Printera’s new Palm City facility.
Printera has moved. Our new 3D concrete printing facility in Palm City, Florida gives us a little more than double the production space of our previous shop, along with a second printer, expanded office and meeting space, and a double loading bay. For the architects, landscape architects, and general contractors we work with, the short version is this: more capacity, more room to collaborate, and a space you can walk through before you specify anything.
Below is what changed, and why it matters for the projects on your desk right now.
More Room, More Parts in Production
The expanded production floor holds printing, staging, and material storage under one roof.
The old space in Stuart served us well. It also had a ceiling, in every sense. One printer with one print bed meant projects queued up behind each other. A large column order or a multi-piece bench system occupied the shop until it finished.
The new facility changes that math. We now run two printers, and each printer has two print beds instead of one. That means four beds in total where we previously had one.
Practically, that shifts how we schedule. While one bed produces parts, another gets prepared or cleared. Multiple projects move in parallel rather than in sequence. For clients, the benefit shows up in the calendar. Lead times become easier to commit to, and a large order no longer blocks everything behind it.
We are not going to promise you a specific turnaround here, because scope drives that more than equipment does. But the constraint that used to force us to say “we can start that in six weeks” has loosened considerably.
A Space Built for Seeing the Material in Person
A sampling of finished work, from planters and seating to sculptural vessels, in a range of colors and finishes.
Photos of 3D printed concrete undersell it. The layer lines read as texture on a screen. In person, they read as depth. You notice how light moves across the surface through the day, how the material feels under your hand, and how the geometry resolves at full scale rather than in a render.
That gap is the reason a showroom is the next thing we are building.
The new facility has the space set aside for it, and the buildout is our next project. When it is finished, it will hold finished pieces across the categories we print most: planters, benches, columns, signage shells, and interior surfaces like bars and reception desks. You will be able to see how a Voronoi pattern behaves at counter height, compare finishes side by side, and bring a client who has never seen printed concrete and let the material make its own argument.
In the meantime, there are finished pieces throughout the shop and printers running most days. If you want to see the material, come see the material. The dedicated space will make that easier, but it is not a prerequisite.
Office and Conference Space for Earlier Collaboration
The new facility includes expanded office space and a dedicated conference room. This connects directly to how we prefer to work.
Our best projects start early. When a design team brings us in during schematic design, we can use our parametric tools to test variants quickly, flag geometry that will print well versus geometry that will fight us, and shape the design around what the process does naturally. When we get brought in after construction documents are finalized, we are often solving problems that did not need to exist.
Having real meeting space next to the print floor makes that collaboration easier. You can sit down, work through options, then walk fifty feet and look at the machine that will produce them. Lunch and learns get a proper room. Firm visits stop being a tour of a warehouse with folding chairs.
A Loading Bay Built for Concrete
The new loading bay, built to move large printed concrete components out cleanly and on schedule.
This one sounds unglamorous. It is not.
The new facility has a loading bay with two bay doors. Printed concrete components are heavy, large, and unforgiving of bad handling. Every transfer point between the print bed and the truck is a risk. Fewer awkward moves means fewer chances to chip an edge on a piece that took days to produce.
Two bay doors also mean we can load one project while receiving material for another. Shipping stops being a bottleneck that interrupts production.
For clients shipping nationally, this is quietly one of the more meaningful upgrades in the building. Our components go to New York, to Ohio, across Florida. Getting them out the door cleanly and on schedule is a real part of the job.
The Pre-Printed Method Hasn’t Changed
Two printers share the open floor, with loading doors at the far end for shipping finished work.
None of this alters our approach. Printera still fabricates off-site in a controlled environment, then delivers finished components to your site for your builder or contractor to install. We do not install, and we do not want to. Your team handles the site; we handle the parts.
That separation is the point of the Pre-Printed method. Site work and fabrication happen in parallel rather than in sequence. Weather does not stop production. Quality stays consistent because the environment stays consistent. Components arrive ready to set.
The new facility simply gives that method more room to operate. Same process, more throughput, better space to bring people into.
What This Means If You’re Specifying Now
A few practical notes for design teams and builders evaluating projects for late 2026 and early 2027:
Capacity is less of a constraint. If a project previously felt too large or too tight on schedule to consider printed concrete, it is worth another conversation. The answer may have changed.
Come see the work. We host firm visits, lunch and learns, and student groups, and the new space has considerably more room for them. Teams like landscape architects often find that seeing the material in person changes how they think about specifying it. If your team wants CEU-style education on 3D concrete printing or just wants to touch the material, reach out.
Bring us in early. The conference space exists because early collaboration produces better results. We would rather help shape a design than work around a finished one.
We’re still shipping nationwide. Palm City is our production base. Our components go wherever the project is.
Grand Opening: Save Your Spot
We are planning a grand opening soon! The date is not locked yet, but we are building the list now.
The event will include live printing demonstrations, a walkthrough of the new production floor, and time with finished pieces. It is built for the people who specify and build: architects, landscape architects, contractors, developers, and designers. Partners and past clients are on the list too. If you would like to bring a colleague or a client, just let us know when you RSVP so we can plan for it.
If you would like an invitation when we finalize the date, add your name to the pre-signup list. No commitment, and we will only reach out with event details.
