Wrap Technologies Brings BolaWrap to University Campus Safety

Wrap Technologies (NASDAQ: WRAP) has announced a significant expansion of its non-lethal public safety solutions into the higher education sector. 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. This move by UMBC underscores a growing trend among educational institutions to equip their security personnel with tools designed to de-escalate situations and reduce the risk of injury. Wrap Technologies emphasizes that the BolaWrap® device is not pain-based compliance; it does not shoot, strike, shock, or incapacitate. Instead, it deploys a multi-sensory distraction of sight and sound, followed by a non-lethal restraint if further escalation is required, aiming to create time and distance for safer resolutions.

This deployment aligns with Wrap Technologies' broader strategy to expand adoption of its public safety portfolio beyond traditional municipal law enforcement into markets such as higher education, healthcare, transportation, critical infrastructure, and security. The company’s Non-Lethal Response ecosystem includes not only the BolaWrap® 150 device but also Wrap Reality®, an immersive training simulator; WrapTactics™ training programs; WrapVision™ body-worn camera system; and next-generation C-UAS solutions like PAN-DA and the 1KC Kinetic Anti-Drone Cassette. Wrap Reality® VR is a fully immersive training platform that enhances decision-making under stress by providing realistic, interactive scenarios, equipping officers with the skills to navigate high-stakes encounters effectively. WrapVision™ is an all-new body-worn camera and evidence management system designed for efficiency, security, and transparency, with a critical made-in-America roadmap projected for early 2026.

Wrap Technologies reports that the BolaWrap® 150 is used by over 1,000 agencies across the U.S. and in 60 countries, backed by training certified by the International Association of Directors of Law Enforcement Standards and Training (IADLEST). The company’s mission is to provide safer, scalable, and cost-effective technologies for public safety, defense, and critical infrastructure markets.
