(OTCQB: KBLB) ('Company' or 'Kraig Labs'), a world leader in spider silk technology*, announces today the successful development of a new recombinant spider silk parental line, purpose-built for large-scale commercial production.
This newly developed strain represents the third commercial production line created by Kraig Labs as it executes on its strategy to expand output capacity. The addition of this next-generation silk-producing line comes as the Company ramps up production to fulfill current material requests and strategically build inventory for future sales.
'Our team continues to deliver on key milestones as we scale the commercialization of spider silk,' said Company Founder and CEO, Kim Thompson. 'With the development of this new production strain, we are not only increasing our ability to meet existing demand, but also reinforcing the foundation for our future growth.

'As we prepare to implement double hybrid crosses into our production platform, we are opening the door to greater scalability, efficiency, and product consistency,' Thompson continued. 'This is a key step forward in our mission to bring the power of spider silk to mainstream markets.'
The Company is continuing its focus on building a robust and scalable production system as it transitions from pilot operations to full-scale manufacturing.

Quantum computing enables more complex and detailed customer profiling, resulting in highly accurate, multidimensional customer insights. Quantum-enhanced collaborative filtering algorithms can synthesize vast amounts of information in recommendation systems to deliver tailor-made content.

Aurora Mobile leverages quantum computing to simulate real-world market dynamics, integrating data on customer behavior, competitor strategies, and industry trends. By simulating the effects of different marketing strategies, it evaluates risks and returns to help businesses identify optimal solutions.
