Trace Eye-D Announces Distribution Partnership with Bob Barker Company to Support Safety in Correctional Facilities
TAMPA, FL - Trace Eye-D is proud to announce a new distributor partnership with Bob Barker Company, a long-time trusted supplier to correctional and detention facilities across the United States. This partnership will bring Trace Eye-D’s narcotics instant detection wipes to more correctional facilities nationwide—supporting safety, prevention, and operational control in high-risk environments.
Bob Barker Company will carry Trace Eye-D’s narcotics detection line, including the F1 Fentanyl wipe which detects synthetic + natural opioids, the C34 Cocaine Wipe, and the M39 Methamphetamine Wipe.
These detection wipes are trusted by agencies across the country for their simplicity, accuracy, and instant results—requiring ✅ no ampoules, ✅ no waiting, and ✅ no spills. Used with the Open. Wipe. Look. #OWLMethod, each wipe provides real-time, color-based presumptive results that help correctional officers identify threats quickly and safely.
“We're honored to support Bob Barker Company's mission by providing tools that help corrections teams detect narcotics instantly and keep facilities safe and secure,” said Chris Baden, CEO of Trace Eye-D.
Drug smuggling and narcotics use continue to threaten safety in U.S. jails and prisons. Fentanyl in particular is being discovered more frequently during searches—posing serious health risks to staff and incarcerated individuals.
Equipping facilities with detection tools like Trace Eye-D wipes can help agencies intervene faster and minimize harm.
“Partnering with Trace Eye-D to help further our goal of making our customers’ facilities safer and more secure was an easy decision,” said Garrett Riley, Director of Marketing and Digital Strategy, Bob Barker Company. “We’re excited to offer this simple solution that can have a profound effect on saving lives.”
