XTRACT ONE SELECTED BY MECKLENBURG COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS TO ENHANCE BUILDING SECURITY DISTRICT-WIDE

Xtract One Technologies Inc.'s Xtract One Gateway system has been selected by Mecklenburg County Public Schools, located in Boydton, Va., to enhance school security and ensure student, staff and visitor safety. After extensive analysis of the industry, Mecklenburg County Public Schools selected the company's Gateway solution to optimize student, staff and visitor security and ingress. Having previously faced challenges with efficiently and effectively screening students' backpacks, Mecklenburg County Public Schools is revamping its security screening procedures with Xtract One's tested and modernized system. Gateway is purpose-built for weapon detection in environments -- like schools -- where visitors regularly enter carrying numerous larger personal items, such as backpacks, laptops and lunch bags.

"We're proud to partner with Mecklenburg County Public Schools to help create a safe and secure environment for students, faculty and staff across the entire district," said Peter Evans, chief executive officer of Xtract One. "Up until today, schools like Mecklenburg have often struggled with systems that alert on laptops, binders, eyeglass cases, chargers et cetera. This has resulted in costly solutions that require complex ConOps, additional systems like X-ray machines and the added complexity of state inspections for those machines, additional staffing for bag checks, and unfortunately continued ineffectiveness and missed weapons. Schools have had to use two systems to do one job. With Gateway, we have delivered a leapfrog in innovation -- one system that can do two jobs, and allows students to walk in with their backpacks, laptops, binders, chargers, headsets, Nintendo Switches, smart phones ... without any divesting, all while detecting weapons."

"We have been very pleased with Xtract One as they have worked diligently with us to deploy a weapons detection system for our secondary schools here in Mecklenburg county, Virginia," said Scott Worner, superintendent of Mecklenburg County Public Schools. "Wanting to better address the ingress of our middle and high school students as they enter our facilities, the company's One Gateway should provide our students and parents with additional confidence of a safer school environment, as well as a deterrent for individuals who wish to enter our facilities with contraband and weapons. Xtract One has exemplified what we expect in a partnership -- with a focus on the best outcome for our school, providing set-up, integration, training, troubleshooting and analytics."

Xtract One Gateway transforms the security experience by balancing powerful threat classification and detection with seamless flow for individuals passing through. With advanced bidirectional configurable screening and proprietary sensors designed for precise weapon detection and identification, Gateway helps streamline access into and out of facilities up to four times faster than traditional screening methods without disrupting the flow of movement. The solution respects individual privacy while maintaining the highest safety standards, scanning individuals, their pockets, their bags and their backpacks for potential mass casualty weapons while distinguishing harmless personal belongings like laptops, tablets, three-ring binders, notebooks, phones and water bottles.
