The company was recognized with a gold award in 2015 for its patented AseptiWave process, which uses rapid, consistent heating to produce shelf-stable foods that retain the qualities of fresh foods without preservatives or refrigeration.

The Edison Awards – named for Thomas Alva Edison, who achieved vast notoriety with 1,093 U.S. patents – annually honor the best in innovations and innovators.
