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.
This 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 noted its broader Non-Lethal Response ecosystem also includes Wrap Reality, WrapTactics, WrapVision and other public safety technologies.
The BolaWrap 150 device 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. 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 Technologies’ complete public safety portfolio includes the non-lethal BolaWrap 150 device, Wrap Reality immersive training platform, WrapVision body-worn camera system, WrapTactics training programs, and next-generation 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.
Wrap Reality VR is a fully immersive training simulator to enhance decision-making under stress, providing first responders with realistic, interactive scenarios that reflect the evolving challenges of modern law enforcement. WrapVision is an all-new body-worn camera and evidence management system built for efficiency, security, and transparency, capturing, storing, and managing digital evidence while ensuring operational security and regulatory compliance.
The UMBC deployment highlights the growing demand for non-lethal tools and techniques to create time, distance and tactical advantage in non-criminal calls. The BolaWrap 150 is not pain-based compliance; it does not shoot, strike, shock, or incapacitate. Instead, it helps officers strategically operate pre-escalation on the force continuum, reducing the risk of injury to both officers and subjects.
