908 Devices (NASDAQ: MASS) announced that the Romanian Customs Authority has successfully deployed 27 MX908 devices across its border operations for enhanced security measures. The handheld mass spectrometers, delivered earlier this year, enable real-time identification of trace chemicals, particularly drugs and explosives. The devices can detect trace levels of substances on vehicles, containers, and packages within seconds, allowing customs officials to make quick, informed decisions during inspections.
The order was secured through 908 Devices' channel partner, MATE-FIN, via an EU Customs Control Equipment Instrument program. The deployment and training were completed in early 2025, strengthening Romania's border security capabilities and its contribution to European Community safety.
908 Devices has secured significant contracts to supply advanced chemical detection devices to the European Union's rescEU disaster preparedness initiative. The company has delivered 108 devices to EU member states over the past six months.
Key deployments include:
- Czech Fire Brigade: 6 MX908 mass spectrometry devices for Q2 2025, adding to their existing 12 devices (XplorIR and ThreatID)
- Finland: 90 ProtectIR handheld FTIR analyzers, delivered across Q4 2024 and Q1 2025
These devices enhance disaster response capabilities by enabling rapid identification of chemical, biological, radiation, and nuclear (CBRN) threats. The MX908 can detect hazardous substances in multiple forms, while ProtectIR can identify over 23,000 chemical substances.
908 Devices (Nasdaq: MASS) has received a $2 million order from the Texas Department of Public Safety for its MX908 handheld mass spectrometry device. This follows an initial order from last year and is funded through the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) grant.
The MX908 devices, shipped in April, will be deployed throughout Texas at critical interdiction locations. The technology enables first responders to detect and identify trace amounts of hazardous substances, including synthetic opioids like fentanyl and nitazenes, and counterfeit pills.
The investment comes amid rising fentanyl-related deaths in Texas, which have increased by 158% from 2020 to 2023. The devices will support agencies including the Criminal Investigations Division and Narcotics Enforcement in modernizing frontline detection capabilities to combat the opioid crisis.
