28 September, 2015 / News

Pool & Spa News featured Crystal Lagoons in their article, “Mega Lagoons Crack U.S. Market,” which discussed the company’s success in the U.S. marketplace. The demand for the innovative technology is largely driven by real estate developers who are looking to turn their new and existing projects into a beach-front properties with the world’s top amenity.

The feature depicts Crystal Lagoons as multinational company founded in Chile that holds the record for the world’s largest crystal-clear lagoon and that is planning several massive installations in the U.S.

Instead of common pool equipment, the company builds its gigantic Caribbean beach replicas with sustainable technology that uses ultrasound for purification. Water quality is monitored and adjusted remotely from a control center.

According to Uri Man, Crystal Lagoons’ CEO, in the United States, the company currently has eight projects in development in the United States and another 35 in negotiations. The trend is largely driven by real-estate developers who are buying in on the prospect of turning any project into a beach-front property.

Future projects include two 10-acre lagoons that will sit next to residential high rises at a $4 billion project in North Miami, and an 11-acre behemoth at a master-planned community in Orange, Fla. The company also is making headway in Texas and California, as well as Arizona, where it hopes to establish a public beach-like facility, Man said.

The contractor built its first mega-lagoon at a Chilean resort called San Alfonso del Mar. At 20 acres, it was declared the largest crystal-clear lagoon in the world in the 2007 Guinness World Records. The company has more than 300 projects in 60 countries.

Crystal Lagoons Corp. is an international innovation company, founded by scientist Fernando Fischmann, which has developed a patent-protected technology that allows the construction and maintenance of unlimited-size crystal clear lagoons at very low costs.
