Kraig Biocraft Laboratories Further Expands Spider Silk Production Levels with Launch of Third Production Cycle

This cycle is being released in a set of scheduled batches, the first of which is already in production. This batch process is designed to address the upcoming peak of the rainy season while driving Kraig Labs toward its 2024 production volume goals.

This expanded production cycle was empowered by an additional production facility recently brought online. The Company is utilizing this newly constructed facility to support the continued expansion of silkworm rearing and silk production, avoiding the typical slowdowns due to rain.

Kraig Labs expects to bring additional facilities online over the next two months to increase its production footprint in support of its goal of delivering the first metric ton of spider silk to the global markets.

With each successive production cycle, the Company further validates its spider silk production model and that its specialized silkworms are ready for mass production. This now-fielded technology has broken through technical barriers, allowing for the large-scale commercial production of engineered spider silk using the cost-effective, time-tested, and established infrastructure for traditional silk.

“Our rearing operations continue to set new commercial spider silk production records. The first half of 2024 was a game-changer for the commercialization of spider silk, and we are expecting even greater things for the second half of the year,” said Company Founder and CEO, Kim Thompson. “This year has been an inflection point for Kraig Labs and for the limitless possibilities of spider silk commercialization.”

Kraig Biocraft Laboratories Increases Spider Silk Production with Next Generation of Hybrid Eggs Completed

ANN ARBOR, Mich., – June 25, 2024 –Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (OTCQB: KBLB) (“the Company” or “Kraig Labs”), announces today that it has expanded its production of spider silk with the creation of the next generation of BAM-1 hybrid. 

Kraig Labs recently announced the successful production of the first BAM-1 hybrid cocoons early this month. That production cycle ended with the significantly scaled-up output of hybrid eggs. These eggs were produced through careful selective breeding of the BAM-1 parental strains raised during this rearing cycle.

Based on the strong results of the last production batch, Kraig Labs elected to increase egg production this cycle. This represents the largest egg production in the Company’s history. These eggs are slated for rearing within the next 30 days.

The Company’s team is coordinating its rearing efforts and operational plans, for the next 60 days, to optimize its spider silk output, while factoring in the August weather cycle, which typically sees a reduction in traditional silk production due to heavy rains and suboptimal rearing conditions.

“The first half of 2024 has been, objectively, the most productive time in the Company’s history,” said Founder and CEO Kim Thompson. “We set some very aggressive goals for the BAM-1 hybrids and the expansion of spider silk production. We are hitting our marks with the business model and production schedule as the BAM-1 hybrids continue to demonstrate the robustness and performance.”
