EnWave Signs Technology Evaluation and License Option Agreement with Bridgford Foods Corporation to Collaborate with the U.S. Army to Produce Military Rations

(PresseBox) (Vancouver, B.C., )
EnWave Corporation (TSX-V:ENW | FSE:E4U) (“EnWave”, or the “Company” - https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/enwave-corp/) announced today that it has signed a technology evaluation and license option agreement (the “TELOA”) with Bridgford Foods Corporation (NASDAQ: BRID) (“Bridgford”), a leading American food production company.  Bridgford currently focuses on the production of frozen and snack foods, with operations in California, Texas, Illinois and North Carolina. Prior to the signing of the TELOA, Bridgford entered into a cooperative research and development agreement (“CRADA”) with the U.S. Army to jointly develop commercially viable military ration components.

The CRADA allows EnWave to install a 10kW REV™ machine recently purchased by the U.S. Army in February 2021 at a site of Bridgford’s in North Carolina for research and development purposes. The TELOA grants Bridgford the option to enter into a royalty-bearing commercial license to produce REV™-dried commercial baked goods and meat products for both the U.S. Army and their broader client base. EnWave and Bridgford will now collaborate to replicate certain close combat rations developed by the U.S. Army for field use.

Concurrently during the term of the TELOA, the U.S. Army is planning to submit a ManTech application to the U.S. Department of Defense to potentially receive funding to purchase a 60kW REV™ machine for larger scale military ration production.

About EnWave 

EnWave Corporation, a Vancouver-based advanced technology company, has developed a Radiant Energy Vacuum (“REV™”) – an innovative, proprietary method for the precise dehydration of organic materials. EnWave has further developed patent-pending methods for uniformly drying and decontaminating cannabis through the use of REV™ technology, shortening the time from harvest to high-quality, marketable cannabis products. 

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 forty royalty-bearing licenses to date in twenty countries world-wide. In addition to these licenses, EnWave established a Limited Liability Corporation, NutraDried Food Company, LLC, to manufacture, market and sell all-natural dairy snack products in the United States, including the Moon Cheese® brand. 

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.
