Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. announced that it has kicked off the first production run of the second quarter for its recombinant spider silk. In support of the growing production capacity at the Company's subsidiary, Prodigy Textiles, the laboratory team has dramatically increased the testing throughput. This quality testing is the bedrock upon which the Company has been growing its spider silk production operations.

Once the team completes this testing cycle, it will have increased its throughput by nearly ten times that of first quarter of 2022. This milestone marks a new baseline for production capacity and sets the Company on a trajectory to outgrow its existing factory capacity as early as second quarter of 2023. Outpacing the capacity of the existing factory space was anticipated and planning for additional production capacity is well underway.
