Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, the leading developer of spider silk based fibers, is finalising details of its first shipment of the company’s proprietary recombinant spider silk silkworm eggs to Vietnam. Kraig Labs will work in cooperation with leading sericulture experts in Vietnam, to demonstrate the performance and capabilities of the company’s uniquely developed silkworms, as it moves to expand the production of its recombinant spider silk from pilot to full scale production.

Due to the unique nature of this project, the company had to work hand-in-hand with government officials in Vietnam to develop the required regulations and protocols. It expects to complete all the required documentation for this shipment within the next two to three weeks and raise its silkworms in Vietnam in the fourth quarter.
