In preparation for its third spider silk production cycle of the season, Biocraft Laboratories Inc. has entered a phase of rapid expansion. The silkworms grow swiftly in this phase in order to be ready to spin the company’s special recombinant spider silk cocoons.As previously indicated, in order to lessen congestion and guarantee a consistent supply of fresh, dry mulberries during the wet season, the company has instituted a batch-rearing procedure. This technique offers the best circumstances for cocooning and rearing silkworms while also promoting the health of the silkworm colony.
The business has increased its manufacturing area throughout the last week in order to handle the silkworms’ rapid growth. The entire silkworm colony is being attentively observed by the company for health and performance during this critical growing phase. According to reports, the company’s most resilient production strain to date is the BAM-1 hybrid.
COO Jon Rice stated, “Kraig Labs has made a significant leap in spider silk production capacity.” Our deliberate investments in buildings, machinery, silkworm genetics, and assembling an experienced staff to make use of these resources have allowed us to make significant progress. Nearly every week, we make substantial progress toward our business goal as we methodically increase our production capabilities to create the first commercially viable, affordable spider silk in history.
