~$850,000 Production Activation Demonstrates Revenue Reactivation and Scalable Industrial Execution Under NUBURU’s Defense Transformation Plan

DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

NUBURU, Inc. ( BURU ) , a dual-use Defense & Security platform company focused on non-kinetic effects, directed-energy technologies, and software-orchestrated defense systems, today announced the activation of its Q1 2026 structured production ramp through its wholly owned operating subsidiary Lyocon S.r.l., following a previously awarded contract valued at approximately $850,000.

The order consists of 40 high-power 450nm blue laser systems for Dutch agritech automation company Trabotyx, including:

24 units – 100W systems

16 units – 200W systems

The principal manufacturing and delivery cycle is scheduled for the first quarter of 2026 and represents the first fully structured production cadence under NUBURU’s reactivated blue-laser industrial platform.

Industrial Execution Supporting Defense Platform Strategy

While deployed within the agritech vertical, the order provides operational validation of Lyocon’s scalable 450nm high-power laser architecture — a core technological pillar of NUBURU’s broader non-kinetic and directed-energy strategy.

The platform enables:

Concentrated energy delivery in compact configurations

Modular scalability between 100W and 200W systems

High-precision targeting capability

Integration within automated and AI-driven operational systems

Importantly, the Q1 2026 production ramp establishes a repeatable manufacturing framework, strengthening supply chain readiness, quality control standardization, assembly throughput, and deployment discipline.

Commercial deployments in civilian markets provide performance validation and industrial scale that are strategically relevant to mission-critical and security-oriented applications.

As the Company continues to build its integrated Defense & Security ecosystem, structured industrial output serves as a measurable step in reinforcing operational discipline and revenue reactivation.
