****JUSTIN A. JONES RESPONDS TO QUESTION VIA EMAIL****


I sent:

Dear Justin A. Jones,

Congratulations on the "Watershed' breakthrough.

I was intrigued by your statement in the article:

"“Until now, this process was thought to require use of expensive, noxious solvents, many of which degraded the strength and elasticity of the spider silk protein,” says Justin Jones, senior research scientist in the Lewis Lab. “This made manufacture of the silk too costly, its consistency unreliable and posed a danger to workers.”

Does this mean that the costs are approaching that of KBLB's silkworm platform?

Any information will be deeply appreciated.

Take Care and God Bless....God Bless Us All.

Respectfully Stated,

Justin Jones response:

xxxxxxx,
I dont know what it costs to produce Kraig Biocrafts silk. Therefore, I cannot make that comparison. What I do know, is that this development improves on the spinning of recombinant spider silks in a manner that would allow it to be industrialized at a more reasonable price.

Thank you for the congratulations and sorry I cannot be of more help,

I replied:

Dear Justin Jones,

I thank you for your prompt reply.

A Live Science Article states:

Cheap threads
Once production is up and running, Thompson estimates it will cost less than $68 per pound ($150 per kilogram) produced to make the silk.

Based upon this estimation, could it be said that you still have a 'ways to go' before competing with that price parameter?

I do realize that the two companies may be going in different directions,with respect to potentially manufacturing applications and that Araknitek also has foams,film and more under consideration.

Any information will again be deeply appreciated.

Take Care and God Bless....God Bless Us All.

Respectfully Stated,
