Turn shipping containers into modern eco-friendly homes,
custom-designed, 50% cheaper and delivered within 3 months.
Container homes are currently all the rage, thanks to their modern look, quick construction time, and eco-friendly features. Kembelt, a container home builder, will guide you through every step of the process to create a customized modular home, keeping costs and deadlines under control so you can realize your dream of providing a roof over your family's head.
Shipping containers are 98% recycled and reduce the carbon footprint by 70% compared to traditional construction. Each house uses 3-6 existing ISO-certified High-Cube containers, thus avoiding the production of new polluting materials.
RT2020 compliant from the design stage: high-performance polyurethane insulation (R=6.5), FSC wood cladding, triple-flow glazing (Uw=0.8), thermodynamic dual-flow ventilation. Energy savings 60% higher than traditional houses.
Result: your home consumes 15kWh/m²/year instead of 100kWh for a conventional home.
Factory + construction site = 90 days versus 18 months for traditional construction. The containers arrive pre-assembled at the factory (70% of the work), bolted together on site in 10 days, interior finishing in 3 weeks. No drying time, no downtime.
Factory-installed equipment: plumbing, electricity, CMV, insulation, joinery. Delivery by flatbed semi-truck, direct crane lifting onto concrete blocks. No traditional foundations required, a simple 15 cm slab is sufficient.

A container house is a dwelling built from recycled or new shipping containers. These containers, usually made of Corten steel, are cut, assembled, and fitted out to create a comfortable and personalized living space according to your architectural plan. Kembelt, a builder of container houses in Normandy and the rest of France, offers a range of models and configurations to meet the needs and desires of future occupants. Whether you are looking for a single-story container home or a modular home made from stacked container cubes, we can meet all your needs for an adaptable home.
For your modular home, the containers are prepared in our factories and then transported to the site where they will be assembled. This method of home construction significantly reduces production time and costs, while ensuring optimal insulation and acoustic quality.
Advance preparation and standardization of the components used in container homes also significantly reduce production and purchasing costs. This makes it possible to build a container home for much less than the cost of a traditional home. In addition, the steel used to make the containers offers exceptional strength and durability, ensuring the longevity of the home.
Thanks to their rectangular shape and standardized dimensions, containers can be easily arranged and modified, offering great freedom in interior and exterior design.
The container house is therefore a modular home that can evolve according to the needs of its inhabitants and adapt to the constraints of the terrain. Since containers are self-supporting structures, it is possible to make different types of cuts and assemblies to achieve unique designs and finishes.
Finally, the dimensions and modularity of containers offer almost unlimited design freedom. JDK Concept, a Normandy-based container home builder, offers a wide range of configurations, from single-story container homes to multi-story container homes, as well as life box and converted container models. This modularity allows you to give free rein to your imagination.
