Construction Upcycling Shipping containers
Upcycling Shipping Containers
Shipping containers can be regarded as waste objects that can be used as building components thus avoiding the use of steel from other processes or the extraction of virgin materials during the product stage. Empty containers are accumulated worldwide as a result of the linear nature of the trading system. With an upcycling process, the “stored” steel contained within abandoned freight containers is introduced into the circular economy of the building sector. This upcycling process provides for each new house a general global warming potential reduction.
Cocoon Modules is upcycling shipping Containers effectively transforming them into luxurious houses that otherwise would require newly produced raw materials to build. In an ever consuming society Cocoon Modules is proud to reintroduce these raw steal materials in the economy leading the way to more sustainable and efficient urban planning.

The Process
Step 1
Feasibility Assessment / Site Visit
The service includes phone consultation, site visit to determine overhead crane clearance and truck accessibility, the review of the building location, orientation, foundation options, and site-specific requirements. It also includes budgetary estimates with regard to shipping, crane work and on-site installation. Lastly we make the design proposal.
Step 2
Design and Engineering
Once the design proposal is approved we move on to create a 3D visual representation of your home where you can make revisions and finally approve. Then we create the drawings, Site plan, floorplans, elevations, sections, and initial foundation design.
Step 3
Permit Submittals
Once all architectural, engineering, and certification documentation is complete, all drawings and accompanying documentation are compiled and can be submitted for Building Permits in the local planning office.
Step 4
40% Construction Down Payment
Upon approval of the Building Permit from the planning office, we move on to the construction stage. A 40% Manufacturing Down Payment is necessary to be deposited prior to the manufacturing start date.
Step 5
Production and 30% Progress Payment
At key stages of construction, we will provide updates and pictures of your home. Your local contractor begins site preparation and foundation work. The 30% manufacturing progress payment is due upon completion of the structural frame and prior to the start of Module complexing, Mechanical/Electrical/Plumbing rough-in, insulation, drywall, paint, and interior finishing.

The Green roof
A Green roof, also-called “oikostegi” (Greek – oiko, pronounced [ˈiko], meaning building-ecological, and stegi, pronounced staygee, meaning roof-abode-shelter) improves insulation and reduces energy consumption among other benefits. It is covered with soil and vegetation, planted over a waterproofing membrane. A Drainage and irrigation system is in place to make sure life on the roof is sustainable. The installation of a Green roof significantly affects the overall thermal performance of the building with energy savings of up to 50%.
