EnWave Provides Progress Update on Advanced Development Project with US Army to Create Nutrient Rich Field Rations
Vancouver, B.C., January 29th, 2018
EnWave Corporation (TSX-V:ENW | FSE:E4U) (“EnWave”, or the "Company" - http://www.commodity-tv.net/c/search_adv/?v=297852) is pleased to announce that it has achieved a series of positive product development results in partnership with the US Army Natick Soldier R&D Center (“US Army”) as part of a project to create superior, phytonutrient-rich field rations for soldiers in the field.
Protein is a readily available source of nourishment for field soldiers however, the highly perishable nature of fruits and vegetables presented a challenge for the US Army. By comparison to traditional dehydration techniques, Dr. Tom Yang, leading food technologist for the US Army, has capitalized on the unique solution that EnWave’s innovative Radiant Energy Vacuum (REVTM) technology provides. By using the Company’s REVTM technology, nutrient-rich rations can be provided to field soldiers in high volumes, with a longer shelf life, without compromise to food quality or soldier performance.
Furthermore, Dr. Yang believes the initial effort has only scratched the surface for future possibilities. The joint project between EnWave and the US Army has brought together government, academia and industry to advance the US Army’s objective of creating new innovative field rations for soldiers. All contracted work is taking place at EnWave’s pilot plant facility in Vancouver, Canada. With the first phase of positive results achieved, the US Army and EnWave plan to continue in the project with the ultimate goal of employing REVTM on a commercial basis for the production of soldier field rations.
The innovation and success of the Company’s ongoing project with US Army is highlighted by the recently published article by NSRDEC Public Affairs entitled “Natick’s compressed “Salad Bar” is tip of the iceberg in Soldier food revolution.” This article can be accessed via the following web address: https://www.army.mil/article/199240/naticks_compressed_salad_bar_is_tip_of_the_iceberg_in_soldier_food_revolution

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 organic materials. REV™ technology’s commercial viability has been demonstrated and is growing rapidly across several market verticals in the food, cannabis, and pharmaceutical sectors. EnWave’s strategy is to sign royalty-bearing commercial licenses with industry leaders in multiple verticals for the use of REV™ technology. The company has signed over twenty royalty-bearing licenses to date, opening up nine distinct market sectors for commercialization of new and innovative products. In addition to these licenses, EnWave has formed a Limited Liability Partnership, NutraDried LLP, to develop, manufacture, market and sell all-natural cheese snack products in the United States under the Moon Cheese® brand.
EnWave has introduced REV™ as the new dehydration standard in the food and biological material sectors: faster and cheaper than freeze drying, with better end product quality than air drying or spray drying. EnWave currently has three commercial REV™ platforms:
1. nutraREV® which is used in the food industry to dry food products quickly and at low-cost, while maintaining high levels of nutrition, taste, texture and colour;
2. powderREV® which is used for the bulk dehydration of food cultures, probiotics and fine biochemicals such as enzymes below the freezing point, and
3. quantaREV® which is used for continuous, high-volume low-temperature drying.
An additional platform, freezeREV®, is being developed as a new method to stabilize and dehydrate biopharmaceuticals such as vaccines and antibodies. More information about EnWave is available at www.enwave.net.
