Crystal Lagoons kicks off 2022 with Mega Contracts and New Markets

The year 2022 began with news for Crystal Lagoons, which continues to grow in the world. Among them, are new mega-contracts and the opening of new markets.

The revolution of the Public Access Lagoons™ projects, also known as PAL™ developments, has meant that the multinational water innovation company expands in several countries.

In Europe, for example, it will enter into Eastern European market, bringing the PAL™ concept to the main capitals of that region, cities of great cultural and historical richness as well as being iconic tourist destinations. These are Budapest (Hungary), Prague (Czech Republic), Bucharest (Romania) and Warsaw (Poland).

Another new market to which Crystal Lagoons will bring beach life is Central America, more specifically Costa Rica, a country known for its more than 600 beaches and 1,228 kilometers of coastline. In this iconic tourist destination, the multinational is proceeding with its first PAL™ development, which is part of a mega-contract for 11 such complexes signed with successful Central American businessmen and wealthy families. This agreement opens up the possibility of developing other projects in countries such as El Salvador, Honduras, Panama, Nicaragua, Dominican Republic and Belize.

The company is also growing its presence in the United States, its largest market worldwide. In Orlando, Crystal Lagoons is negotiating a second contract for two public access complexes with ADËLON Capital, a firm with which it has already entered an agreement for at least five additional artificial lagoons in that city. These projects are in addition to Evermore Orlando Resort, a development that is advancing at a steady pace in the footsteps of Disney World and Universal Orlando Resort.

In the Middle East and North African (MENA) region, Crystal Lagoons is expanding with five new complexes in Egypt, its most important market, where the emblematic Citystars Sharm El Sheikh is located in the heart of the Sinai desert, with a 12.5-hectare crystalline lagoon. New developments this year are focused on the Red Sea (Abu Soma) and Cairo, in partnership with the same developers of the Sharm El Sheikh (Sharbatly) and Fouka Bay and Mount Galala (Tatweer Misr) projects on the North Coast.

Meanwhile, in Dubai, the company is negotiating a master agreement for five PAL™ developments in partnership with a prestigious German-African real estate fund. Meanwhile, the luxury residential development Tilal Al Ghaf is also making headllines by expanding its 7-hectare lagoon to 13 hectares, triggered by its extraordinary success in sales, placing it among the top 5 best-selling greenfield projects in Dubai. In Saudi Arabia, the multinational is in talks for three new contracts, of which two are master agreements for PAL™ lagoons and a real estate project in Jeddah.

Crystal Lagoons also has plans in the Oceania and Asia markets, which include five projects in Australia, a master agreement in South Korea (31 PAL™ projects), developments in Japan (in Okinawa and Osaka), 15 PAL™ projects in Pakistan and two new developments in Palestine.

PAL™ projects of Crystal Lagoons expand into Israel

Technology and improving the quality of life through innovation are the concepts that Crystal Lagoons and Israel share. In this country, one of the most innovative in the world, the multinational company founded by scientist Fernando Fischmann has entered with a new agreement to develop Public Access Lagoons™, also known as PAL™ projects, real estate, and mixed-use complexes.

The WOOOW! Entertainment projects, developed with the international real estate holding ECIPSA Group, will be located in different cities throughout the country. The developments will give Israeli city-dwellers access to an idyllic beach life all year round, irrespective of their particular climate, and will include a large crystalline lagoon suitable for swimming and water sports, with white sandy beaches. Also, they could include hotels, residential areas, gastronomic poles, retail, and beach clubs, among others.

Israel and Crystal Lagoons also share a commitment to sustainability and water protection, and the technology of the multinational has won several international awards for its sustainability. A vital feature of these lagoons is that they can use any type of water, including seawater and brackish water from arid areas, with no alternative use. This combination of factors paved the way for the debut of Crystal Lagoons in Israel, a country that has pioneered water protection.

The centerpiece of the PAL™ real estate and mixed-use projects will be a lagoon powered by Crystal Lagoons® technology, and, in the case of those with public access, any person will be able to access through the entrance fee.

“The fact that one of the world’s leading countries in innovation and water sustainability is welcoming Crystal Lagoons is a tremendous endorsement of our technology,” said Francisco Matte, regional director for Crystal Lagoons.

The company’s sustainable technology has been crucial to its success in developed countries. The lagoons only need filling once, operate with a closed-circuit system, can use any type of water (sea, brackish and fresh), and use 40% less water than a green area. Additionally, they use up to 100 times fewer chemicals than a swimming pool and only 2% of the energy of a conventional filtration system, certified by Bureau Veritas.

PAL™ developments have caught the attention of significant market players worldwide, with high-profile contracts signed in: the United States, Japan, Saudi Arabia, India, Korea, Palestine, Pakistan, Europe, and Colombia, among others.
