Senior VP of Crystal Lagoons® US is interviewed on Radio Money of Arizona

Iván Manzur, Senior Vice President of Sales for Crystal Lagoons® US, was interviewed by one of the main radio stations on the US West Coast, Money Radio, from Arizona. The occasion allowed to highlighted some of the main characteristics of Crystal Lagoons® technology.

The interview is available on several platforms, such as Spotify, Apple Podcasts / iTunes, Google Podcasts, Twitter, TuneIn, among others.

“Bring a piece of Caribbean all over the world, was the dream of the scientist and innovator Fernando Fischmann. After seven years of research, he developed a state-of-the-art technology that allows crystalline lagoons of unlimited sizes to be built and maintained at low costs. Thus came the concept and technology of Crystal Lagoons®, patented in 190 countries”, explained Manzur.

But, against intuitively what one might think with these large artificial lagoons, their technology is sustainable. In fact, this amenity uses 30 times less water than a golf course and only half that of a park of the same size.

In addition, its filtering system uses only 2% of the energy required in a conventional filter system and up to 100 times fewer chemicals than a swimming pool.

The success of this innovative technology has been such that Crystal Lagoons® has more than 1,000 projects in different stages of development and negotiation across the five continents. Of these, 810 developments are Public Access Lagoons™, the new revolution of Crystal Lagoons®.

These amenities are monumental crystalline lagoons suitable for swimming and water sports, surrounded by tropical beaches, just a few steps from home, which can be accessed via ticketed-entry. Also, are ideal locations for events, launches, fairs, weddings, concerts and endless activities.

 

Added-value technology

The pioneering attributes have transformed these lagoons into the world’s top amenity, given the value that these attractive turquoise water bodies add to real estate and entertainment projects and to the users.

In fact, this technology has triggered the possibility to develop projects in places never imagined before and with great results in sales and prices. Likewise, most of the projects that incorporate a crystalline lagoon register an exponential increase in the value of the square meter and properties.

The sales rate of projects with an artificial lagoon accelerates in ranges that can go up to 70% with just a billboard announcing that the development will incorporate a Crystal Lagoons® amenity. In addition, a lagoon increase the density of the projects, which many times must more than double the units for sale with which they were planned.

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.

Crystal Lagoons® technology is changing the lives of millions of Paraguayans by bringing a piece of the ocean to the cities and creating urban beach life, just as 200 years ago, an architect in England brought a piece of the forest to the city of London and urban parks were created.
