Wrap Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: WRAP) announced that the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) has purchased BolaWrap devices and Non-Lethal Response training as part of its initial deployment of non-lethal capabilities for campus safety and security. The deployment is intended to support responsible, measured response by providing officers with an additional non-lethal tool designed to help reduce escalation and create opportunities for safer resolutions.
The UMBC deployment advances Wrap Technologies' strategy to expand adoption of its public safety portfolio beyond traditional municipal law enforcement into markets including higher education, healthcare, transportation, critical infrastructure and security. The company's broader Non-Lethal Response ecosystem also includes Wrap Reality, WrapTactics, WrapVision and other public safety technologies.
Wrap Technologies is a global leader in innovative public safety technologies and non-lethal tools, addressing complex modern-day challenges facing public safety organizations. Its complete portfolio includes the non-lethal BolaWrap 150 device, Wrap Reality immersive training platform, WrapVision body-worn camera system, WrapTactics training programs, and next-generation counter-unmanned aircraft systems (C-UAS) solutions like PAN-DA and the 1KC Kinetic Anti-Drone Cassette. These technologies support the company's mission to provide safer, scalable, and cost-effective solutions for public safety, defense, and critical infrastructure markets.
With growing demand for non-lethal tools and techniques to create time, distance and tactical advantage in non-criminal calls, Wrap's BolaWrap 150 incorporates a multi-sensory distraction of sight and sound as a first response, followed by a non-lethal restraint if further escalation is required. This approach reduces the risk of injury to officers, subjects, and the community. The device is not pain-based compliance; it does not shoot, strike, shock, or incapacitate, but instead helps officers operate pre-escalation on the force continuum. Used by over 1,000 agencies across the U.S. and in 60 countries, BolaWrap is backed by training certified by the International Association of Directors of Law Enforcement Standards and Training (IADLEST).
Wrap's non-lethal ecosystem also includes WrapReality VR, a fully immersive training simulator to enhance decision-making under stress. It provides first responders with realistic, interactive scenarios that reflect evolving challenges, equipping officers with skills and confidence for safer outcomes. WrapVision is a body-worn camera and evidence management system built for efficiency, security, and transparency. Powered by IONODES, it features streamlined cloud integration and a made-in-America roadmap projected for early 2026, ensuring data integrity and addressing concerns over foreign surveillance risks.
