Wrap Technologies Expands WrapShield Platform with Regulatory Win and Counter-Drone Acquisition

Wrap Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: WRAP) is building global momentum as it expands the WrapShield public safety platform, driven by regulatory clarity, strategic technology acquisition, and a growing product ecosystem. The company reported continued adoption of its Non-Lethal Response system across public safety agencies, alongside approximately $1.2 million in international orders and a reaffirmed target of roughly 100% year-over-year revenue growth in 2026.

A key development is ATF Ruling 2026-2, effective July 2, 2026, which classified the BolaWrap 150 as a federally recognized instrument of restraint rather than a firearm or “any other weapon.” This regulatory clarity may remove longstanding procurement barriers across law enforcement, corrections, and government markets, helping agencies move from extended evaluation toward department-wide programs. The ruling positions the BolaWrap as a standard tool for non-lethal restraint, potentially accelerating adoption.

Wrap Technologies also announced a strategic transaction with Israeli AI sensing company Frenel Imaging Ltd., granting WRAP exclusive U.S. and NATO distribution rights to Division of Focal Plane (DoFP) polarimetric sensing technology. This technology detects drones by their physical light-scattering signatures rather than radio-frequency emissions, enabling detection even after a drone stops transmitting. WRAP describes this as the detection layer of its emerging WrapShield platform, addressing the growing threat of unauthorized drones in public safety scenarios.

The company is positioning a three-component Non-Lethal Response architecture: the BolaWrap 150 (handheld restraint), the Wraptor MX (multi-shot platform), and the developing DFR-X (drone-deployed restraint), all operating around a common framework. With the first operational Wraptor MX prototype and an early-adopter program, WRAP aims to provide a comprehensive response to tense encounters. The company emphasizes that the single measure of success for non-lethal tools is a tense encounter that ends with everyone going home safely—the person in crisis, the officer responding, and the community watching.
