THE ADVANTAGES OF SPIDER SILK
In addition to spider silk’s potential anti-ballistic qualities, spider silk’s amazing properties could make it the basis of many market disrupting technologies in industrial, military and consumer applications, requiring superior strength, toughness and flexibility.
The Advantages of Spider Silk
• Potential uses include ballistic protection.
• Unequalled combination of elasticity and tensile strength represents technological paradigm shift.
• Interest in spider silk has exploded as the technology approaches commercialization.
• Genetically engineered spider silk fibers are a powerful new technological approach to potentially opening up new application and markets.
• The market for technical textiles is in excess of $120 billion annually.
• Spider silk technology has the potential to revolutionize the multi-billion dollar silk industry.
• The market for traditional raw silk alone is in excess of $5 billion per year.
• Biodegradable and biocompatible.
• Spider silk production could greatly reduce many of the toxins and pollutants used in conventional petroleum based fiber and polymer production process.
High performance technical fibers are currently used in a wide variety of military, industrial, and consumer applications requiring superior strength, toughness and flexibility.
These facts make KBLB a very unique opportunity.
