ANN ARBOR, Mich., – March 7, 2022– Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (OTCQB: KBLB) (“Company” or “Kraig Labs”), the biotechnology company focused on the development and commercialization of spider silk, announced significant advancements in its Vietnam based production facility, Prodigy Textiles.

The collaboration between the Company’s US and Vietnam lab teams has resulted in their first complete genetic screening of in-process production silkworms. This fifth generation of silkworms, now being reared in Vietnam, is the first production cycle of silkworms at the factory to receive 100% genetic screening. This level of testing, for Kraig Labs, was previously only available at the Company’s R&D headquarters is now being fully transferred to the Vietnamese lab team. 

Earlier this month, the Company flew in an expert trainer to provide hands-on training with new staff members of its expanded R&D team at Prodigy Textiles. In the coming weeks, Kraig Labs’ senior scientist will be at Prodigy Textiles to build on that training and bring additional competencies to the lab in Vietnam. Working together, the Prodigy and Kraig Labs’ teams will screen the sixth generation eggs, the largest expected single production cycle in the Company’s history, and prepare the lab for its expanding role in supporting silk production.

“Transferring this screening technology to Prodigy was the final element needed for our operations team in Vietnam to complete scaling up output to match our facility capacity,” said COO Jon Rice. “With our lab team at Prodigy taking over this crucial testing, I believe our team in Vietnam is now ready to boost monthly silk production targets by 20-50 times current levels.”

In the coming months, the Company also expects to begin harvesting is own supply of fresh mulberry that it began planting in December of last year. This onsite supply will play a critical role is allowing the Company to continue to expand the production of spider silk analog fibers and yarns and to deliver materials to its current and anticipated future end market channel partners.

ANN ARBOR, Mich., – February 16, 2022– Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (OTCQB: KBLB) (“Company” or “Kraig Labs”), the biotechnology company focused on the development and commercialization of spider silk, announces that the United State Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has recently published two key patent applications filed by the Company. These two USPTO patent applications build on Kraig Labs’ innovative recombinant spider silk technologies.

These USPTO patent applications are based upon three provisional patents filed in July of 2020. The two consolidated applications were filed in July of 2021. This is the first opportunity for the public to take a look under the hood to see what this powerful intellectual property encompasses and the opportunities they may unlock.

The first of these USPTO applications, titled “Synthesis of High Molecular Weight Proteins Using Inteins”, reinvents the Company’s approach to manufacturing large-format spider silk protein. This new technology allows for the automated self-assembly of target proteins within the silkworm. This process allows for the opportunity to reach beyond the limits of current protein synthesis technologies. 

This new approach, using the auto-processing capabilities of Inteins, creates the opportunity to create plug-and-play blends of numerous spider silk proteins that are not inhibited by the current size limitation for targeted gene knock-in knock-out transformations. 

The second of these USPTO applications, titled “Synthesis of Non-Native Proteins in Bombyx Mori by Modifying Sericin Expression”, moves beyond the heavy chain fibroin and creates opportunities for co-production of non-fibrous proteins within sericin. Sericin is the stick glue-like protein holding the silk fibers together, making up roughly 20% of the cocoon, and is broadly considered a waste product. 

This invention seeks to leverage this untapped resource to increase the production of target proteins. These target materials include a range of possible applications, including therapeutic and pharmacological proteins. The current production systems for these proteins are inefficient and, therefore, very expensive. This new process opens the possibility for large-scale production materials such as elastin, keratin, human collagen, and many more at comparatively very low costs.

“Our research team continues to deliver, developing novel and innovative applications for our gene-editing technologies,” said COO Jon Rice. “While our production operations in Vietnam remain laser-focused on the large-scale commercial production of spider silk textiles, our lab is busy executing on the technology roadmap to secure Kraig Labs’ future and legacy.”

ANN ARBOR, Mich., – December 9, 2019 –Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (OTCQB: KBLB) (“Company”), the leading developer of spider silk based fibers, announced today that its research and development (“R&D”) team has expanded their research focus far beyond the spider silk proteins in the Company’s Monster Silk® and Dragon Silk^TM products.  These new protein designs have the potential to create new materials and open additional markets for the Company’s recombinant silk technologies.

With the additional research personal hired this year, the Company has been able to expand its R&D into new and exciting arenas. The lab team has recently identified innovative native protein sequences from an exotic species that has demonstrated performance beyond the capabilities of the Company’s current transgenics.

The DNA encoding, from specific portions of this species’ proteins, have been synthesized and are already in the Company’s labs. These proteins are believed to be responsible for the amazing performance that the native materials exhibit.

The R&D team employed its new “mix and match” assembly system, which allows for accelerated development and performance experimentation, to design the new DNA domains to integrate with the Company’s existing DNA constructs. This approach allows the Company to produce a fiber containing a blend of current technologies with new DNA constructs to form an array of new tailored materials.

“I am very excited by the possibilities these new DNA constructs can offer.  By incorporating these new designs with our proven ‘mix and match’ assembly system, we are opening new doors and a vast array of end material properties.” said Chief Scientist, Trevor Kane, Ph.D. “I applaud my team for the willingness and determination to continually expand the cutting edge of transgenic spider silk research.”

The Company believes that these new DNA constructs should enhance future transgenic silkworm capabilities, as the isolated DNA, in these new proteins, exhibit higher performance than the Company’s original baseline transgenic spider silk proteins.

While the Company’s R&D team continues to push the boundaries of scientific possibilities, the Company will continue to advance the commercialization of its current suite of technologies, which have different target markets. In fact, the Company’s production arm, Prodigy Textiles, is preparing to make its first commercial delivery of enhanced fibers in the first quarter of 2020.  In support of this phase, the Company’s COO will be travelling to Prodigy Textiles to oversee this exciting evolutionary step in its journey to commercialize and deliver spider silk on a global scale.

Rapid Expansion of recombinant Spider Silk production on track to grow Operations and yield Fibers for first significant fabric production run

ANN ARBOR, Mich., – December 3, 2019 –Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (OTCQB: KBLB) (“Company”), the leading developer of spider silk based fibers, announced today that Prodigy Textiles, the Company’s Vietnamese subsidiary, has completed hatching the second generation of silkworms, as it continues to expand production at its factory in Quang Nam province.  This second generation is several hundred times larger than the first generation.  The resulting cocoons from this production cycle will be used to fulfill the first commercial shipments from this new factory.  

With hatching complete, the Prodigy Textiles team is now busy rearing this significantly expanded silkworm population.  The Company anticipates these silkworms becoming cocoons over the next two weeks, with this batch of specialized silk expected to be completed by Christmas.  This cycle represents the largest single month’s production of recombinant spider silk in the Company’s history.  The Company expects this record to be quickly broken, as it continues to expand its Vietnamese operations, heading into 2020.    

The Company will be sending its COO, Jon Rice, to Vietnam to oversee the completion of this second generation.   During this trip Rice will work with the Prodigy team, as it prepares to convert the resulting cocoons into finished silk yarn.  Rice will also set the stage for further expansion with the next production cycle slated to begin in early January. 

 “The smooth transition from our first production batch to this much larger second generation is a testament to the quality of the great team we have put together in Vietnam,” said Rice.  “I look forward to working hand in hand with them, later this month, to plan out the next phase of our rapid growth and to implement additional processes to support our expanding operations.”

“The pace of our production scale up is exceeding even my expectations,” said CEO and Founder, Kim Thompson.  “We’ve always believed that once we launched production in Vietnam that our growth would be rapid. Today’s announcement that we have begun the second production cycle is another in a series of exciting milestones for spider silk commercialization and Kraig Labs.”
