Plans for the first building in Latin America will be built on Sweden Street in Providencia in Santiago, Chile, which will have an air purification system that will allow decontamination.

This is Hotel Nodo, which with HYDROTECT, will make this possible: it is a ceramic, developed in Italy, which covers the surface of the building and makes the coating react to the action of solar rays, decomposing and neutralizing nitrogen and oxides of sulfur.

This innovative system works by removing polluting components from the environment when they come into contact with the surface of the building treated with this technology. Solar radiation generates a reaction in the material that forms active oxygen and cancels out harmful substances. In addition, it is antibacterial and self washable so it is not exaggerated to say that it is a clean technology.

Mauricio Meyer, General Manager of Hotel NODO, comments more about this initiative

“So that we get an idea, 150m2 of this technology is equivalent to 1,000 m2 of forest with all its benefits of air purification, so we are proud to bring Santiago this wonderful hotel that with its 2,300m2 of facade will equal a forest of one and a half hectares purifying the air of the commune of Providencia."

Hotel NODO, an investment of $23 million, is owned by the Alpa Group, holding companies where MaxiK, Breti, Caprioli, Neuralis and Inmobiliaria Sweden are also located. This architectural piece has a trained team behind, headed by its General Manager, Mauricio Meyer, who has an extensive career in the hotel sector in Chile, responsible for the materialization of this value proposition that will change the air of Santiago at the end of This year and it is in expansion plans, both inside and outside Chile.
