Ever Given 36 inches Container Ship Model

Own a handcrafted replica of one of the world's most innovative container ships. CMA CGM Jacques Saadé is the flagship of the French shipping company CMA CGM and the world's first Ultra Large Container Ship (ULCS) powered by Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG). Named in honor of the company's visionary founder, Jacques Saadé, this revolutionary vessel marked a major milestone in sustainable maritime transportation, combining enormous cargo capacity with groundbreaking environmental performance and setting a new standard for the future of global shipping.

Our 36-inch handcrafted CMA CGM Jacques Saadé model faithfully captures the distinctive appearance of the original vessel. Each model is individually built by experienced craftsmen using the traditional plank-on-frame construction method—the same principle used in authentic wooden shipbuilding. We select only premium hardwoods, including Western Red Cedar, Teak, and Mahogany, to ensure exceptional durability, fine craftsmanship, and a timeless finish.

Every element is carefully recreated, from the massive reinforced hull and expansive container deck to the modern bridge, towering container stacks, deck fittings, and the vessel's signature "LNG POWERED" hull livery. Rather than being mass-produced, each model is individually handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, creating a museum-quality display piece worthy of any maritime, commercial shipping, or naval architecture collection.

One of the defining characteristics of CMA CGM Jacques Saadé is its pioneering LNG-powered propulsion system, designed to significantly reduce emissions while maintaining exceptional operational efficiency. This handcrafted model faithfully showcases the vessel's distinctive green "LNG POWERED" markings, specialized deck arrangements surrounding the LNG fuel storage system, expansive container bays, and modern superstructure, capturing the engineering innovation and environmental leadership that have made Jacques Saadé a landmark in sustainable ocean shipping.

The 36-inch model offers a larger, more commanding display while showcasing an even greater level of craftsmanship and detail. Its increased size allows CMA CGM Jacques Saadé's expansive container bays, distinctive "LNG POWERED" hull graphics, specialized LNG deck arrangements, towering superstructure, and intricate commercial shipping details to be appreciated with exceptional clarity, creating an impressive centerpiece for an executive office, study, display cabinet, or dedicated collection room. Preferred by serious collectors, maritime professionals, shipping executives, and enthusiasts of modern commercial vessels, the 36-inch version delivers enhanced realism, stronger visual presence, and a museum-quality presentation while remaining ideally suited for larger display spaces. It is the perfect choice for those seeking a premium handcrafted replica that fully captures the technological innovation, environmental leadership, and engineering excellence of one of the world's most groundbreaking container ships.

Each piece is individually handcrafted, and production typically takes 3–6 months, depending on the model's size and complexity. Throughout the process, we'll keep you updated with detailed progress photos at every major milestone, allowing you to review the craftsmanship and approve each stage before we move forward.

History
The CMA CGM Jacques Saadé marked a major milestone in sustainable maritime transportation when she officially entered service on September 22, 2020. Named in honor of the visionary founder of the CMA CGM Group, the 1,312-foot (400-meter) ultra-large container ship became the world's first 23,000 TEU container vessel powered entirely by Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG). Constructed by China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC), the ship was purpose-designed to significantly reduce atmospheric emissions, demonstrating a new generation of environmentally responsible engineering for global ocean freight.

Operating on the French Asia Line, the CMA CGM Jacques Saadé is instantly recognizable by its distinctive "LNG POWERED" green livery. The vessel incorporates an advanced hull form, an aerodynamically optimized bow, and a redesigned propeller system to enhance fuel efficiency and overall operating performance. Its enormous 18,600-cubic-meter cryogenic LNG fuel tank provides sufficient capacity for a complete round-trip voyage between Asia and Europe on a single bunkering, reinforcing the ship's position as a landmark achievement in sustainable container shipping and modern maritime innovation.
