EnWave Signs Royalty-Bearing License with Bowen Gumlu Grower’s Association of Australia
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EnWave Corporation (TSX-V:ENW | FSE:E4U) (“EnWave”, or the “Company”) today announced that the Company has signed a royalty-bearing commercial license (the “License”) with Bowen Gumlu Grower’s Association (“BGGA”), a fruit and vegetable industry body that represents the interests of horticultural growers, producers and associated agribusiness in North Queensland, Australia. BGGA intends to leverage the technological benefits of EnWave’s Radiant Energy Vacuum (“REV™”) dehydration technology to develop and produce commercially attractive tropical fruit snacks and ingredients.
In addition to signing the License, BGGA has acquired a 10kW REV™ machine from EnWave’s Australian third-party machine re-seller, Scitek, to begin commercial product development and early-stage manufacturing of REV™-dried products. This REV™ equipment is expected to be commissioned before April 2026. EnWave’s technical and food science teams will work closely with BGGA to ensure premium product quality and process optimization in preparation for the launch of commercial products by their membership base.
Given the breadth of BGGA’s member base and the product volumes produced each year, there is high potential for additional REV™ equipment sales to BGGA as they advance commercialization.
