What CascoTotaal does
CascoTotaal is a Dutch prefab concrete construction company headquartered in Terneuzen, the Netherlands, operating as a subsidiary of the family-owned De Hoop Terneuzen construction group (110+ years of industry experience). The company develops and produces modular 3D concrete building shells (betoncasco's) for the Dutch business market, with its flagship product being the Circle 3D-Betoncasco — a standardized 35 m² module (9.6 × 3.6 m interior) cast as a single piece with 100 mm walls and roof, integrated foundation beams, and dry demountable connections that enable stacking and reuse like Lego blocks. Production takes place in a dedicated factory in Terneuzen equipped with a carousel-system assembly hall (two lines of ten stations) for off-site finishing; a Circle casco can be cast and de-molded in 24 hours and finished in approximately 10 working days, against roughly 1.5 years for traditional Dutch single-family home construction.
The company serves four primary B2B segments: housing corporations and municipalities (affordable and temporary housing), construction companies (bouwbedrijven) that receive cascos for finishing and placement, project developers (residential development), and investors (rental and investment properties). CascoTotaal generates revenue through one-time unit sales of prefab cascos, with indicative pricing of approximately €120,000–€130,000 for a tiny-house unit, €170,000–€180,000 for a ground-based single-family home, and around €140,000 in construction costs for a two-story 70 m² dwelling. Beyond the standardized Circle line, the company also offers custom-made cascos (Casco's op maat) for projects requiring bespoke solutions, and collaborates with architectural and engineering partners (KAAN Architecten, ABT) and channel partners (Bouwgroep Peters, V&V Bouw) on co-branded concept products including Modulo, HIVE, GrowHomes, and Curaviewoningen.
The go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting the zakelijke markt (business market), with a project-based sales motion and direct engagement with developers, housing corporations, municipalities, and investors. The current product line claims approximately 30% less concrete usage and ~20% lower total construction costs versus traditional methods, with an MKI (environmental cost) value of 0.13 marketed as the most circular concrete casco in the Netherlands. Current production capacity is approximately 370 Circle cascos per year, with stated ambitions to scale to 2,000–3,000 units annually. The company is private, GDPR-compliant, and operates exclusively in the Netherlands with no disclosed revenue figures.

CascoTotaal product offering
Product offeringCore offering
CascoTotaal develops and manufactures standardized and custom prefabricated 3D concrete building modules (betoncasco's), most notably the Circle concept, in its Terneuzen factory. The concrete shells are produced off-site with an integrated carousel finishing hall and can be combined horizontally or stacked vertically to form anything from tiny houses to multi-story apartment complexes. Output is sold to housing corporations, municipalities, construction companies, project developers, and investors as the structural shell for circular, fast, and sustainable building projects.
Product overview
CascoTotaal offers a portfolio of prefabricated modular building solutions centered around two core products: Circle and Casco's op maat. Circle is a standardized 3D concrete shell system designed for circular construction, suitable for applications ranging from tiny houses to four-story apartment buildings. Casco's op maat provides custom-tailored prefabricated concrete modules for projects requiring bespoke solutions. Both products are manufactured in CascoTotaal's factory in Terneuzen and can be equipped with facades, frames, windows, doors, roofing, insulation, utilities, walls, and sanitation before transport to site. The company operates as part of De Hoop Terneuzen, leveraging over 110 years of construction experience.
