EnWave Signs Equipment Purchase Agreement with Fresh Business for a 10kW Machine to Accelerate Commercial Product Opportunities in Spain

Fresh Business d.b.a. NEOREV intends to forge close partnerships with Spain-based technology hubs and innovation centers to leverage EnWave’s patented REV™ technology for the development of new commercial opportunities. The installation of the REV™ Equipment in Spain will enable industry innovators to expedite the commercialization of leading-edge, premium applications using the EnWave technology. Fresh Business intends to partner with selected technology centers that will provide research and development services to demonstrate the value proposition of REV™ technology. Fresh Business expects to complete the installation of the REV™ Equipment at a technology innovation center in Spain in the coming months, which will increase the visibility of REV™ technology among potential new EnWave partners and will serve as another European hub for proof-of-concept trials on new product applications.

Fresh Business d.b.a. NXTDRIED (nxtdried.com) currently holds a royalty-bearing commercial license agreement to produce a broad portfolio of food products in Peru. EnWave commissioned a 100kW REV™ machine and 10kW REV™ machine at NXTDRIED’s Peruvian facilities in late 2020. NXTDRIED operates a highly sustainable business model that sources locally grown fresh fruits and superfoods to be dried using the REV™ low temperature dehydration process to transform them into nutritious, organic, super-crunchy snacks and ingredients with simply amazing results.

About EnWave

EnWave Corporation, a Vancouver-based advanced technology company, has developed Radiant Energy Vacuum (“REV™”) – an innovative, proprietary method for the precise dehydration of food and cannabis applications. The Company has developed patented methods for uniformly drying and decontaminating cannabis through the use of REV™ technology, shortening the time from harvest to marketable cannabis products.  EnWave also holds a robust intellectual property portfolio protecting several unique processes relating to specific food applications produced using vacuum-microwave technology.

REV™ technology’s commercial viability has been demonstrated and is growing rapidly across several market verticals in the food, and pharmaceutical sectors, including legal cannabis. EnWave’s strategy is to sign royalty-bearing commercial licenses with innovative, disruptive companies in multiple verticals for the use of REV™ technology. The company has signed over fifty licenses to date spanning twenty countries and five continents. In addition to these licenses, EnWave established a Limited Liability Corporation, NutraDried Food Company, LLC, to manufacture, market and sell REV™-dried snack products in North America, including the Moon Cheese^® brand, as well as co-manufacture for third parties. 

EnWave has introduced REV™ as a disruptive dehydration platform in the food and cannabis sectors: faster and cheaper than freeze drying, with better end product quality than air drying or spray drying. EnWave currently offers two distinct commercial REV™ platforms:

1. nutraREV^® which is a drum-based system that dehydrates organic materials quickly and at low-cost, while maintaining high levels of nutrition, taste, texture and colour; and,
2. quantaREV^® which is a tray-based system used for continuous, high-volume low-temperature drying.

EnWave is also active in the pharmaceutical industry through a joint development agreement with GEA Lyophil, a leader in GMP drying machinery.
