Wrap Technologies Selected to Support Florida Teacher Safety Training Program

Wrap Technologies (NASDAQ: WRAP) has been selected by WOFT Charities to provide training support for the WOFT Teacher Safety Training Program, which received a $475,000 appropriation in Florida’s fiscal year 2026-27 state budget. This initiative underscores the growing importance of preparing educators for potential threats, reflecting a broader societal focus on school safety.

WRAP will support training focused on situational awareness, threat recognition, early intervention, de-escalation, and avoiding physical confrontation when possible. The program will provide practical safety and preparedness training for teachers, administrators, and other school personnel, including real-world scenarios and practical self-defense instruction. This move signals a shift in how non-lethal technology and training are being applied beyond traditional law enforcement contexts.

The $475,000 appropriation was made to WOFT, with WRAP receiving a portion based on services provided, and should not be interpreted as a direct $475,000 award or future revenue to WRAP. However, this collaboration grants WRAP exclusive access to WOFT’s training facility, which is being developed as a national flagship environment for integrated WRAP training. The company believes the model could expand beyond education into law enforcement, private security, military, and other professional safety environments, as well as private citizens, and eventually incorporate a digital training ecosystem supporting continuous learning, recurring proficiency, and certification.

Wrap Technologies is a global leader in innovative public safety technologies and non-lethal tools. Their 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 aim to provide safer, scalable, and cost-effective solutions for public safety, defense, and critical infrastructure markets.

With a 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. 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).

WrapReality VR is a fully immersive training simulator to enhance decision-making under stress. As a comprehensive public safety training platform, it provides first responders with realistic, interactive scenarios that reflect the evolving challenges of modern law enforcement. WrapVision, an all-new body-worn camera and evidence management system, captures, stores, and helps manage digital evidence, ensuring operational security, regulatory compliance, and enhanced video picture quality and field of view. Powered by IONODES, the WrapVision camera boasts streamlined cloud integration and final North American assembly, with a critical made-in-America roadmap projected for early 2026.

This partnership with WOFT Charities not only enhances the safety of Florida’s educators but also positions Wrap Technologies to expand its training ecosystem into diverse sectors. The implications extend beyond immediate revenue, as the company gains a flagship training facility and potential to establish standards in integrated safety training. As school safety remains a pressing concern nationwide, this initiative could serve as a model for other states and industries, highlighting the pivotal role of technology and training in proactive threat mitigation.
