The class is made up of three series of ships, each built at a different shipyard. The ships are all similar in size but do have a somewhat different design. The ships are chartered to MSC by various companies.

Six ships were built by Samsung Heavy Industries for the Singapore based Eastern Pacific Shipping.[2] Another six ships were built by Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering for Minsheng Financial Leasing and China Bank of Communications Financial Leasing.[3] The last two ships are built by Hyundai Heavy Industries and are owned by Ship Finance International.[4]
