What Murébois does

Mur\u00e9bois is a French industrial manufacturer and builder of prefabricated wood frame (ossature bois) building components, headquartered in Lannilis, Bretagne, and operating as the dedicated industrial manufacturing arm of Groupe Trecobat. The company runs two factories\u2014Mur\u00e9bois 29 in Lannilis (inaugurated 2011) and Mur\u00e9bois 35 in L'Hermitage near Rennes (expanded 2019)\u2014with combined annual production capacity of 120,000 m\u00b2 of clad walls, floor cassettes, roof trusses, and 3D modular volumes. Production uses semi-automated off-site prefabrication with integrated insulation, windows, and weather barriers, supported by an in-house BIM and CADWORK design office plus 3D laser scanning for adaptation to existing structures. Thermal performance exceeds R = 7 K.m\u00b2/W, with fire ratings from REI 30 to REI 120 and acoustic reduction above 40 dB; the company holds NF DTU 31.4, IT 249, RE2020, BBC R\u00e9novation, Passivhaus, E+C-, BBCA, and PEFC certifications. The business model combines hardware sales of prefabricated components with professional services across four engagement models: supply-only, supply-and-installation in separate lots, weatherproof building delivery (hors d'eau/hors d'air), and full all-trades construction (TCE). Customers include social landlords (Finist\u00e8re Habitat, Bretagne Sud Habitat, Nantes M\u00e9tropole Habitat, Aiguillon Construction), public institutions (P\u00f4le Emploi, Lyc\u00e9e Colbert, CHRU Brest), and enterprises (ENEDIS, Cr\u00e9dit Agricole, Stade Brestois 29), served through direct sales with project-specific quotes rather than public pricing.

Core offering

Murébois industrially manufactures prefabricated wood-frame building components — wall panels (ossature bois), facade panels (FOB), floor cassettes, roof trusses and 3D modular volumes — in two Brittany factories, then delivers and installs them on site under multiple contract modes (fourniture seule, fourniture et pose en lots séparés, hors d'eau hors d'air, TCE). The offering combines manufactured structural components with multi-trade construction services aimed at property developers, social landlords, public entities and private individuals.

Product overview

Murébois is an industrial wood frame construction company belonging to the Groupe Trecobat. The company operates a platform-plus-services model, offering prefabricated wood frame components (walls, floor cassettes, roofing) as its core products, supplemented by engineering and construction services. The product portfolio centers on three main categories: (1) Prefabricated wood frame elements including walls (ossature bois), floor cassettes (caisson de plancher), and roofing (charpente); (2) Facade solutions (Façades Ossature Bois/FOB) for energy renovation and new construction on concrete structures; and (3) Construction delivery services ranging from supply-only to full turnkey projects (TCE). All products are manufactured in Murébois's two French factories using off-site construction methodology, integrating insulation, windows, and weatherproofing in controlled factory environments.

Products and services

• Murs à ossature bois préfabriqués (Prefabricated wood-frame walls) Industrial prefabricated wood-frame load-bearing wall panels manufactured in Murébois's Brittany factories using BIM-driven CADWORK design and 3D laser scanning, with integrated insulation delivering high thermal performance. Sold to social housing landlords, public entities, commercial developers and private individuals as a supply-only or supply-and-install contract deliverable.
• Façades Ossature Bois (FOB) Prefabricated timber-frame facade panels manufactured off-site by Murébois for building envelopes, integrating structure, insulation and weatherproofing layers in a single factory-produced element. Designed for housing developers, public bodies and commercial clients requiring fast envelope delivery and consistent thermal performance.
• Caisson de plancher (Floor cassettes) Factory-built timber floor cassettes produced by Murébois for off-site construction, designed to BIM specifications and supplied with integrated insulation and services. Used by housing developers, public bodies and commercial clients as part of a complete prefabricated wood-frame building system.
• Charpente en bois (Timber roof trusses) Industrial timber roof trusses fabricated in Murébois's Brittany factories to complement its wall and floor prefabricated components. Designed in BIM and produced to precise dimensions for housing developers, public entities and commercial projects requiring fast weatherproof shell delivery.
• Modulaire 3D (3D modular construction) Three-dimensional volumetric modular units fully prefabricated in Murébois's Brittany factories using BIM and 3D laser scanning. Designed for social landlords, public entities, commercial clients and private individuals requiring maximum off-site content and minimized on-site construction time.
• Bureau d'études BIM et bois (BIM and wood engineering design office) In-house BIM-driven structural and wood engineering design service supporting Murébois's prefabrication projects and external clients needing wood-frame technical studies, BIM modeling and engineering calculations.

• Fourniture seule (Supply only) Supply-only contract mode under which Murébois delivers its prefabricated wood-frame walls, facades, floor cassettes, roof trusses and 3D modules to site for installation by the customer or their construction partner. Suits clients with their own installation teams or general contractors.
• Fourniture et pose en lots séparés (Supply and installation in separate trades) Contract mode in which Murébois both supplies its prefabricated wood-frame components and installs them on site as separate sub-trades, giving the client flexibility to retain coordination of other construction trades. Targets developers and public clients wanting Murébois to handle both manufacturing and envelope installation.
• Réalisation de bâtiments hors d'eau, hors d'air (Weatherproof shell delivery) Contract scope in which Murébois delivers a fully weatherproof and wind-tight (hors d'eau, hors d'air) building shell using its prefabricated components and sealing works, leaving interior fit-out to the client or follow-on trades. Targeted at developers and public bodies needing rapid envelope completion.
• Travaux tous corps d'état (TCE) (All-trades general contracting) Full general-contractor (all-trades) contract mode where Murébois manages and executes every trade (structure, envelope, second fix, finishes) through to building handover, leveraging its factory-produced components and multi-trade capacity. Suited to public-procurement and developer clients wanting single-point accountability.
