Lake Forest, IL – PepperBall®, a leader in non-lethal solutions for law enforcement and security, is excited to introduce the PepperBall® BURST™. The BURST™ is a non-lethal area saturation and diversion device that combines advanced payload dispersal with a powerful 130-decibel auditory deterrent for maximum effectiveness. This powerful tool offers a large, fast-spreading powder cloud and reliable performance, making it perfect for crowd control and tactical situations.

Built for Real-World Challenges

The BURST™ is designed to handle tough situations, giving officers an edge in crowd control and tactical operations. More than just a device—it's a critical advancement in non-lethal technology that empowers officers to do their jobs safely and effectively. Once activated, it releases a thick cloud of exclusive payload, covering large areas quickly. With four variants—officers can choose the best fit for any mission:

BURST STUN™: Designed to overwhelm and disorient threats with a powerful auditory and visual impact, ideal for immediate area denial and distraction in volatile situations.
BURST INERT™: Contains a harmless, non-irritant powder for training exercises and crowd management where minimal force is necessary.
BURST LIVE-X™: Features a potent PAVA-based irritant that causes temporary discomfort, effectively dispersing crowds and controlling aggressive behavior.
BURST LIVE-MAXX™: Offers the highest concentration of PAVA irritant for maximum stopping power in high-threat environments, delivering rapid compliance when it matters most.
Why the PepperBall® BURST™ Stands Out:
Wide-Area Coverage: Creates a big cloud for maximum impact.
Exclusive Payload: Designed for consistent and effective results.
Loud Deterrent: Emits a 130-decibel sound to distract and deter.
Mission-Ready Options: Available in STUN™, INERT™, LIVE-X™, and LIVE-MAXX™ variants.
Reliable Deployment: Consistent timing ensures dependable use.
Durable Design: Tough polymer construction stands up to tough environments.

No ATF Restrictions:

Reliable in High-Pressure Situations

The BURST™ reflects the PepperBall® dedication to giving law enforcement safe and effective tools. Its tough design and consistent performance make it ideal for managing crowds, protecting perimeters, and handling tense situations.

"The BURST™ changes the game for non-lethal tactical control," said Carl Sims, PepperBall® Senior Director of Training. "In today's unpredictable environment, officers need tools they can rely on to manage high-stress situations effectively. The BURST™ provides law enforcement with a safe, reliable option to gain control of volatile conditions without resorting to lethal force. Its combination of a high-impact visual cloud and a powerful auditory blast helps officers quickly de-escalate threats, protect communities, and reduce the risk of harm to both officers and civilians."
