Amir SohailTORONTO, July 14, 2026 (ZM NEWSWIRE) — Xtract One Technologies (TSX: XTRA)(OTCQX: XTRAF)(FRA: 0PL) (“Xtract One” or the “Company”) today announced its Xtract One Gateway (“Gateway”) has been selected to modernize weapons detection and entry security across a network of pharmaceutical manufacturing and distribution facilities, marking the Company’s entry into a new and significant vertical within the broader manufacturing and distribution market. The deployment is enabled by Xtract One’s partnership with Integrated Protection Services (IPS), an organization that provides systems and services for security and fire protection.
Initial system deployments, valued at approximately $0.5 million, are underway at facilities in California, Arizona and Ohio, with additional locations across multiple states scheduled to install Gateway this year and next as part of a planned multi-site rollout. This engagement is the first phase of a broader rollout expected to expand across all its facilities, in an industry that has historically relied on outdated, legacy metal detection systems that create friction for employees and visitors without delivering the accuracy that modern operations require.
“As the market shifts to security becoming a standard, and not a nice-to-have requirement to create safer work-places, we are continuing to see new markets engaging Xtract One to deliver advanced solutions. This customer represents an entry into a significant new and underserved market for Xtract One,” said Peter Evans, CEO of Xtract One. “These facilities face many of the same operational pressures we see across manufacturing broadly and the deployment reflects growing demand for modern weapons detection technology due to high-volume ingress, a workforce that values efficiency, and a real need to replace outdated, intrusive screening methods with technology that protects people without slowing them down. What makes this deployment particularly meaningful is that it is the first of many planned installations with this customer – a clear signal that, once Gateway is deployed and performing, the case for expanding across an entire company’s facilities becomes the obvious next step.”
Xtract One Gateway delivers advanced weapons detection with an emphasis on accuracy, efficiency, and respect for personal privacy. Designed for environments with medium levels of personal belongings and high ingress, Gateway accurately distinguishes everyday items like laptops, notebooks, keys, cell phones, and metal water bottles from potential threats. This precision reduces the need for manual searches and speeds up the screening process. The result is a faster, smoother, and more respectful screening experience that enhances both security and operational efficiency, with throughput up to four times faster than traditional methods allow.
The pharmaceutical and life sciences manufacturing sector represents a substantial addressable market for Xtract One as the Company continues to expand its presence across industrial and distribution environments nationwide. Gateway’s ability to integrate with existing camera and security infrastructure, combined with its low-friction screening experience, positions the Company well to serve additional facilities across this vertical as adoption accelerates.
