Wrap Technologies' VR Training Deployed by Stark Security, Expanding Non-Lethal Market

Wrap Technologies (NASDAQ: WRAP), a leader in non-lethal public safety technologies, announced that Stark Security Inc., a Chicago-based protective services firm, has selected and will deploy the company’s Wrap Reality virtual reality training platform across its operations. This deployment expands WRAP’s presence in the private security market, as Stark uses the immersive platform to train armed and unarmed officers in de-escalation, situational awareness, communication, and policy-based decision-making through realistic scenarios. The move supports WRAP's broader WrapShield platform strategy and reflects growing demand for immersive training solutions in the private security sector.

WRAP also highlighted that ATF Ruling 2026-2, which classifies its BolaWrap 150 as an instrument of restraint rather than a firearm or weapon under federal law, could expand access to civilian and private security markets. This ruling, combined with the Stark Security deployment, underscores WRAP's efforts to broaden adoption of its training and non-lethal response technologies. The BolaWrap 150, used by over 1,000 agencies in the U.S. and 60 countries, provides a non-lethal restraint method that reduces injury risk to officers, subjects, and the community. WRAP's comprehensive portfolio also includes WrapVision body-worn cameras, WrapTactics training, and C-UAS solutions like PAN-DA.

The company emphasized that its Wrap Reality platform offers a fully immersive training simulator to enhance decision-making under stress, equipping officers with skills for high-stakes encounters. With a growing demand for non-lethal tools, WRAP's technologies aim to create time, distance, and tactical advantage in non-criminal calls. The news release also noted that WRAP is a global leader in innovative public safety technologies, delivering cutting-edge solutions to modern challenges.
