Where CW's grants concentrate

CW Holdings Ltd is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 46.2% of grants classified under F04B (Positive-displacement Machines FOR LIQUIDS; Pumps). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, CW sits between Crrc Yangtze Group Co., Ltd. and Carbon Engineering Ltd..

CW's three-year grant acceleration

CW Holdings Ltd shows 7 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
