Kraig Biocraft Laboratories has shipped recombinant spider silk samples to a company experienced in aerospace materials, signaling potential applications for lightweight and durable fibers in aerospace. This follows a recent delivery of custom spider-silk yarn to a sports brand, marking commercial progress. The spider silk's unique combination of strength and toughness, inspired by Darwin's bark spider, could enhance materials used in aircraft and space equipment, possibly combined with carbon fiber for improved impact resistance. Kraig's Project Atlas aims to genetically engineer silkworms to produce even tougher silk fibers, which could expand future industrial uses.
