Wrap Technologies Expands Private Security Footprint with Stark Security Deployment of Wrap Reality Training Platform

Wrap Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: WRAP) 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 and officer training programs. 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 deployment supports WRAP's broader WrapShield platform strategy and reflects growing demand for immersive training solutions in the private security sector. According to the company, 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 as it continues to broaden adoption of its training and non-lethal response technologies.

Wrap Technologies is a global leader in innovative public safety technologies and non-lethal tools. Its 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.

The BolaWrap 150 has been used by over 1,000 agencies across the U.S. and in 60 countries. It 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. Its training is certified by the International Association of Directors of Law Enforcement Standards and Training (IADLEST).

Wrap Reality VR is a fully immersive training simulator that enhances decision-making under stress. 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 and regulatory compliance. The WrapVision camera, powered by IONODES, boasts streamlined cloud integration and final North American assembly, with a made-in-America roadmap projected for early 2026.

The expansion into private security comes as demand for non-lethal tools and techniques grows. The ATF ruling and the deployment with Stark Security signal a strategic pivot toward civilian and private markets, potentially opening new revenue streams for WRAP. The company's focus on training and non-lethal response technologies aligns with broader trends in public safety, where de-escalation and situational awareness are increasingly prioritized.
