In September 2023, Fraport AG announced the procurement decision in favor of Bruker for providing up to 220 DE-tector flex explosives and narcotics trace detectors to help their airport security measures. The installations are planned over a multi-year period from 2023 to 2027 to modernize the screening of passengers at Germany’s busiest airport, FRA. The advanced, high-performance Bruker DE-tector flex systems are intended to replace earlier-generation Bruker ETD systems at Frankfurt airport. As per the company, traces of most explosives and many illegal drug substances can be accurately traced by wiping surfaces with multi-use, disposable swabs and inserting them into the DE-tector flex.
