Where 4's grants concentrate
4 C's Spray Equipment Rental, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 83.3% of grants classified under B05C (Apparatus FOR Applying Fluent Materials TO Surfaces, IN General). By volume, 4 sits between 3spine, Inc. and 777388 Ontario Limited.
4's three-year grant acceleration
4 C's Spray Equipment Rental, LLC shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
