At this point the news is just being recycled. Did they not already have silkworms there? What happened to them?

Let commercialization begin. Looking forward to more updates from Vietnam.

Great News!

We are now focused on the exciting next phase of our business model; delivering our high performance silk yarns to the market and formalizing strategic partnerships.

Now let commercializations infect the World with our Magnificent fibre breakthroughs!!!!

Don’t think we’ve just started . We likely already have a very healthy worm population already into the tonnage+.

NOW FULL STEAM AHEAD.....that’s 3-500 eggs per worms per cycle. We could be at a Billion worms so quickly your head will spin.
We all know that Kim makes make announcements after they’ve already happened.

In development with Polartec since 2016... get ready folks.

I’m expecting a Ballistics protection PRODUCT...
to be released NEXT

So they are now scaling up to commercialization... meaning no production yet

Jon could have conceivably accompanied millions of eggs to Vietnam! Talk about a rapid scale up!


Kraig Biocraft Laboratories begins scale up of second generation Dragon Silk


ANN ARBOR, Mich., – November 7, 2018 –Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (OTCQB: KBLB) (“Company”), the leading developer of spider silk based fibers, announces today that it has begun the scale up of its recently announced second generation Dragon Silk.

Consistent with the Company’s history of creating performance driven recombinant spider silk, this new material was specially designed at Kraig Labs’ Michigan research headquarters for application in protective textiles, where increased strength and decreased flexibility are expected to provide improved protection.

Scale up of Dragon Silk 2.0 is well underway, with the production team already raising tens of thousands of the new transgenic silkworms at the Company’s US based pilot production facility. Over the next 30 days, Kraig Labs anticipates scaling up production volumes of this new silkworm strain into the millions, as it prepares to create the first silk threads and fabrics made of this next generation recombinant spider silk.

Further, the Company is laying the groundwork to partner with experts in multicomponent thread design and spinning, to develop new specialty threads blending the performance spider silk with other traditional materials. This work is expected to develop threads and fabrics focused specifically on products for the performance wear and other closely linked market segments.

“The ability to rapidly scale up this newly announced material, from initial testing to pilot scale production, is a major differentiator in our approach, which utilizes silkworms and the existing global silk infrastructure,” said COO, Jon Rice. “The current global infrastructure, equipment and skilled labor, is able to produce more than 150,000 metric tons of conventional silk per year. Our recombinant spider silk silkworm technology is a direct drop-in replacement for traditional silkworms and allows us to move quickly, with minimal investment, to bring new products to market.”

Future scale up of Dragon Silk 2.0, as well as the Company’s other lines of recombinant spider silk silkworms, is expected to be transferred to the Company’s subsidiary Prodigy Textiles and its operations in Vietnam, while the Company’s US facility remains focused on the development of next generation materials.

Git 'em while they're cheap! Chess my friends, not checkers!
