Wrap Technologies First International Order for BolaWrap 100

Fielding Worldwide Inquiries for New Non-Lethal Tool LAS VEGAS, NEVADA / ACCESSWIRE / August 21, 2018 / Wrap Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: WRTC), an innovator of modern policing solutions, announced today it has accepted its first international order for its BolaWrap 100 non-lethal remote restraint device.

“We are seeing a dramatic increase in interest in BolaWrap 100 both domestically and internationally as a result of media and our marketing efforts,” said David Norris, President of Wrap Technologies. “We are being very selective as we develop export opportunities and acceptance of this first opening Asian order follows several months of diligence.” In recent weeks the Company has fielded multiple inquiries from Europe, Asia (including the Middle East), Central and South America and Canada. The largest 100 countries in these markets represent an addressable market of over 12 million police officers compared to 765,000 sworn officers in the United States. In many countries, including England, Ireland, New Zealand, Iceland, Norway and others, police officers do not routinely carry firearms and have limited tools to engage an increasingly non-compliant public. “While police worldwide are universally trained to de-escalate hostile situations and use minimal violence in response to a threat, challenges and controversies regarding use of force and mental health encounters create a receptive global market for our new early engagement tool,” stated Mr. Norris. “Our aggressive growth strategy includes targeting important international markets both directly and through qualified representatives.” The Company reported that it is designing production to meet the potential of a very large global market for the BolaWrap 100. It is also developing export compliance and the logistics required to deliver in selected international markets. The Company owns three U.S. patents and five pending patents on its technology. The Company has also filed to reserve all international patent rights to its BolaWrap innovations. Other technology innovations are currently under development expected to result in more patent filings this year. The Company’s strategy is to aggressively secure its product innovations in both domestic and international markets. For information on the Company please visit www.wraptechnologies.com.
