EnWave Signs New Royalty-Bearing Commercial License with Bounty Specialty Foods Inc., Sells 10kW REV Machinery
Delta, BC, June 24, 2024
announced today that it has signed a new royalty-bearing, commercial license agreement (the “Commercial License”) with Bounty Specialty Foods Inc. (“Bounty”), a part of Bounty Fresh Group, a leading producer of protein products in Southeast Asia. Additionally, Bounty has purchased a 10kW Radiant Energy Vacuum (“REV™”) machine for continued product development and early-stage commercial production for the Southeast Asian Market.
Under the Commercial License terms, Bounty has acquired certain exclusive rights to use EnWave’s patented REV™ technology for the production of several product types in the Philippines. If initial commercial efforts are deemed successful, Bounty intends to acquire large-scale REV™ machinery to produce protein, fruit and vegetable products in a more material manner. Bounty will pay a royalty commensurate with certain other existing licenses granted by EnWave, and the Company intends to continue working closely with Bounty to ensure optimal product development success.
