Where Ferton's grants concentrate

Ferton Holding S.A. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 17 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under A61C (DENTISTRY; Apparatus OR Methods FOR Oral OR Dental Hygiene). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Ferton sits between Evonik Industries AG and GE Oil & Gas Compression Systems, LLC.

Ferton's three-year grant acceleration

Ferton Holding S.A. shows 10 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
