06/09/2021

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.

Several international media highlighted that the hotel sector is undergoing a real transformation thanks to the incorporation of innovative technologies. One of the technologies highlighted was precisely Crystal Lagoons, in parallel with process automation and artificial intelligence.

The sustainability of the multinational innovation company was key to being considered within these trends. “Currently, many travelers are seeking accommodations that are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Places like the AVA Resort Cancun, with its artificial lagoon of crystal-clear waters powered by Crystal Lagoons® technology, are examples of accommodations that stand out for their commitment to sustainability,” explains the Spanish portal 24 Matins.

The turquoise-colored body of water provides ideal conditions for sailing, swimming, kayaking, or relaxing, and thanks to state-of-the-art technology, it consumes 33 times less water than an 18-hole golf course, 40% less water than a park of the same size, and only 2% of the energy of a conventional pool.

After transforming the real estate industry and the urban entertainment landscape with its innovative Public Access Lagoons™ projects, the multinational innovation company is now generating a new revolution, this time in the hotel sector.

Recognizing the transformative value of Crystal Lagoons® technology, leading global hotel chains such as Marriott, Radisson, Conrad, Hyatt Regency, and AVA Resort itself, have incorporated this amenity as a centerpiece in their projects.

“Every hotel project incorporating a Crystal Lagoons amenity becomes the most attractive destination in the area. These bodies of water change the paradigm of vacation developments with world-class hotel and resort standards”, explains Iván Manzur, Senior Vice President of Sales at Crystal Lagoons US Corp.

The multinational water innovation company already has developments of this kind, in which crystalline lagoons are the differentiating factor in the United States, Mexico, Indonesia, Romania, and Uruguay, among other countries.

“The crystalline lagoons achieve unprecedented results, such as bringing a beach lifestyle to Orlando—an entertainment option it didn’t have—or, counterintuitively, replacing the sea in iconic tourist destinations like Cancun,” emphasizes Jean Pierre Juanchich, Global Business Director of Crystal Lagoons.
