The ABC of Crystal Lagoons®

Bring idyllic beach life like in the Caribbean anywhere in the world: in the middle of cities, beaches not suitable for swimming, Mediterranean lands and even deserts. That’s the concept that drives the Crystal Lagoons® innovation.

This, thanks to a unique technology that allows building and maintaining crystalline lagoons of unlimited size at low cost. In addition, this technology is sustainable as it uses up to 30 times less water than a golf course, 100 times less chemicals than a swimming pool and only 2% of the energy of a conventional filtration system. The innovation is patented in more than 190 countries with a portfolio of more than 2,200 patents.

Currently, Crystal Lagoons® has more than 1,000 projects in different stages of development and negotiation, in more than 60 countries around the world such as the United States, Egypt, United Arab Emirates, Spain, Thailand, Australia, Vietnam, South Africa, Peru, Japan, Colombia, Argentina, Indonesia, Turkey, Mexico, Uruguay, Peru, Brazil, Argentina and Chile, among others.

However, the market where the company has the largest operation worldwide is the United States, with 221 projects in different stages, in 23 of the 50 states. Some of the most important developments are the master agreements with Epic and Mattel (16 PAL™ projects) and ADËLON Capital (5 PAL™ in Orlando), Epperson and Lago Mar, the first US PAL™ developments and bestsellers.

After revolutionizing the real estate sector for 10 years, Crystal Lagoons® began a new corporate stage, revolutionizing cities with Public Access Lagoons™ projects, or PAL™, which are monumental crystalline lagoons suitable for bathing, nautical sports, white sands, beach life close to home and which anyone can access through the purchase of a ticket.

PAL™ developments are low investment and maintenance projects, with a short-term return, and the possibility of massive use. They revitalize vacant lands, and become public spaces that add value and quality of life to their surroundings, contributing to social inclusion, recreation and relaxation. In addition, the average income generated by a PAL™ is 10 times higher than that generated by a real estate project. These characteristics are making them the new meeting point of the 21st century.

The Public Access Lagoons™ model are exclusive license contracts for a specific geographical area and a certain volume of projects, in association with institutional investors, investment funds, family offices and real estate developers through master agreements.

The developments that include Crystal Lagoons® amenities have multiple benefits: they increase the speed of sale of real estate projects by over 70%, increase their density, radically increase the value per square meter, multiply the consumption of services due to the high visitor flow; and they contribute to the environment by reducing the carbon footprint of travel and the negative impact on the biodiversity of natural tourist places.

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.
