Commercial projects EZA has already delivered in Criciúma and the region
A tour through the commercial projects EZA has delivered in Criciúma and the region: store, clinic, office, hotel and pool, and what each type of project teaches.

In over 35 years on the job site, we have delivered commercial projects of nearly every kind in Criciúma and the region: the Decor Export store, the Miocuore Clinic, the Werner Backes Advogados Associados office, Wagner Pães e Doces, the Althoff expansion in Laguna, the S.R. Mampituba pool, the G.F Building and the Hotel Centenário. Each of these projects taught the EZA team something different. In this post we open up that portfolio and share what each type of project demands in practice. If you are planning a commercial project, it is worth reading before deciding anything.
Commercial projects in Criciúma: each one has a different owner
Commercial projects are not all alike. A store needs to sell, a clinic needs to meet regulations, a hotel receives people every day, a club has members coming and going. Those who hire don't just want a well-built construction, they want the business up and running on the agreed date.
That is why the variety of the portfolio weighs so heavily in choosing the construction company. Each type of project forces the team to learn a new logistics, a new rhythm, a new conversation with the client. The projects mentioned here are published on our website, at eza.com.br/obras, and anyone can check them out.
Store and office: the project works for the brand
At the Decor Export store, the lesson is clear: in retail projects, the finish is a silent salesperson. Lighting, flooring, the storefront window, and circulation guide the customer through the space and say, without words, what that brand's standard is. A poorly resolved detail in the ceiling or on the façade charges a high price later, every day, in the perception of everyone who walks in.
At the Werner Backes Advogados Associados office, the logic changes. Law practice sells trust, so the space needs to convey solidity and allow for private conversation. Acoustic comfort between rooms, sober materials and a well-thought-out reception are worth more than any visual effect. We talk more about this world in the post about construction of shops and commercial spaces.
Clinics and food service: when regulations govern the design
The Miocuore Clinic falls into the category of project where regulations dictate the design. Healthcare demands accessibility, installations sized for the equipment, easy-to-sanitize materials and well-resolved routes between reception, care areas and technical spaces. The mistake I see most often in this type of project is treating the clinic like any ordinary commercial space and discovering the requirements once the work is already underway. Anyone planning something like this will find a good starting point in the post about construction of clinics and medical offices in Criciúma.
In a project like the one for Wagner Pães e Doces, the heart is the production area. A professional kitchen calls for washable flooring, proper exhaust and installations that can handle heavy equipment running all day long. The part the customer sees only works if what is behind the door works first.
Hotel and expansion: a project coexisting with the business's routine
The Hotel Centenário and the Althoff expansion in Laguna represent a type of project that usually coexists with the operation of the business. When that happens, the schedule stops being a simple list of stages and becomes an agreement about hours, dust, noise and the safety of those circulating nearby.
The Althoff project, in fact, took our team outside its most common area of operation, which is Criciúma and the neighboring cities. Distance changes the logistics of materials, of the team and of the unexpected. Can it be done well? Yes. But only with planning locked in before the first skip arrives. If timelines are your biggest concern, we wrote about how long a commercial project takes.
- Project phases and what stays isolated in each one
- Time slots for the noisiest work
- Protection and signage for those circulating near the construction site
- Material delivery without disrupting the business routine
Building G.F and the Mampituba pool: structure and water
The G.F Building represents the more structural side of the portfolio. A building is a project of repetition and deadlines: a floor that rises well is the result of coordinated design, and that's how we work, with the designs talking to each other before they become concrete. A coordination error in a building never comes cheap.
The pool at the S.R. Mampituba, on the other hand, is a lesson about water. Water finds a path where no one imagines, so waterproofing there isn't a stage, it's the center of the project. At EZA we do a watertightness test: we close everything, wait and monitor. It takes time, but it guarantees the waterproofing is truly working before handover.
After delivering so many commercial projects, one lesson stands out: every business calls for a different project, and whoever builds it needs to understand the business before understanding the concrete. That is the perspective that EZA Engenharia, founded in 1991, brings to every project in Criciúma and the surrounding region.

The conversation costs nothing and usually saves a lot of headaches.
Frequently asked questions
Does EZA only build high-end houses or also commercial projects?
Both. EZA is known for its high-end houses, and it also builds and expands stores, clinics, offices, hotels and commercial buildings. The commercial portfolio includes projects such as Decor Export, the Miocuore Clinic, the G.F Building and the Hotel Centenário.
How long does a commercial project take?
It depends on the scale, the complexity of the project and whether or not the work proceeds with the business operating alongside it. That is why we don't commit to a deadline without evaluating the project. What we can guarantee is a realistic schedule, agreed upon before the start and closely monitored by our engineering team.
Does EZA handle commercial projects outside Criciúma?
Yes. EZA serves Criciúma, Içara, Forquilhinha, Nova Veneza, Cocal do Sul, Balneário Rincão and the southern region of Santa Catarina. More distant projects also happen, as with the Althoff expansion in Laguna.
