 '''Building material''' requires equipment that produces sheets or tiles much like those used for domestic products, however, because the structural properties of those tiles must be significantly enhanced compared to the domestic tiles, the machinery – which produces higher pressure and heat – is more sophisticated. These machines are custom made to our specifications and require a complex infrastructure to support their operation. We are not considering this for the purposes of the Tijuana project.

There is also a California distributor, Conde Systems, (tel: 800-826-6332). We have installed the pneumatic version of this press at USD and the Kumeyaay reservation in Viejas.
