Natural Evolution: Global Leaders in Nutrient-Preserving Food Processing

Natural Evolution has pioneered the world’s first commercial green banana flour and is home to NutroLock™, a patented, pharmaceutical-grade technology that locks in 20–50% more nutrition than conventional food processing. Developed in-house by founder Robert Watkins, NutroLock™ transforms fruits and vegetables into stable, nutrient-dense powders in under 25 minutes — energy efficient, scalable, and with a shelf life of up to three years.

Scientific breakthroughs underpin the business: bananas grown in Tropical North Queensland have been proven to contain the highest natural resistant starch and 5-HTP (a natural serotonin precursor), unlocking unique health benefits and global demand.

Natural Evolution is now expanding beyond bananas into a wide range of produce, creating new value streams for growers and offering the world the gold standard in natural, gluten-free, nutrient-rich superfoods. The company is seeking strategic partners and licensees to scale this breakthrough technology internationally.
