ContraSCAN is a handheld screening device that identifies synthetic cannabinoids, including Spice, hidden in mail, paper and personal items. It delivers a high-confidence, presumptive result in seconds, at the point of screening, with no lab analysis required.
ContraSCAN represents the latest in on-site synthetic drug screening. Rather than sending a sample away for lab analysis, it identifies synthetic cannabinoids optically, directly at the point of screening, and returns a high-confidence presumptive result in seconds. Screening stays non-destructive, so the item being tested remains intact if a case moves forward. It’s built for the realities of frontline work in prisons, correctional facilities, law enforcement and other secure environments, where a fast, informed decision matters more than a lab turnaround time.

No. It’s designed to give a high-confidence presumptive result on the spot, so staff can make an immediate operational decision without waiting on external lab analysis.
No. Screening is non-destructive, which keeps the item intact if it’s needed as evidence afterwards.
Synthetic cannabinoids such as Spice, which are commonly soaked into paper, mail and clothing to smuggle them into secure facilities.
Prisons and correctional facilities, law enforcement, and other secure or government sites where synthetic drug infiltration is a risk.
Mail, paper documents, clothing and personal items.
It keeps staff at a safer distance from handling potent synthetic substances directly.
