Synthetic Spider Silk Market: Growth and Trends
Spider silk is a protein fiber that is spun from spiders. This silk is used to create webs or other structures such as nets to catch prey, cocoons to protect the offspring, or to wrap up its prey. Synthetic spider silk production relies on bioengineered proteins designed to replicate the strength and elasticity of natural spider silk. These proteins are synthesized using genetically modified organisms (GMOs) through fermentation processes. Biopolymers and processing aids are used to support protein assembly and fiber formation, while additives enhance fiber properties of synthetic spider silk.
The growth of the synthetic spider silk market during the forecast period is being driven by significant advancements in various applications of synthetic spider silk in military and automotive among other industries like construction. Additionally, the rising demand for synthetic spider silk in the production of aerospace interior products as well as demand in textiles and healthcare is contributing to global market expansion.
