Southern Pines, N.C. (December 18, 2017) – K2 Solutions, Inc. is pleased to announce that we have been awarded the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) SAFETY Act Designation for Single Purpose Explosives Detection Canine Handler Teams.

K2 canines can screen skids (pallets) more effectively, reliably, and more quickly than traditional methods to reduce the number of man-hours and resources needed under the current requirements.
