Manitou Italia S.R.L. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 29 CPC subclasses with 60.4% of grants classified under B66F (Hoisting, Lifting, Hauling OR Pushing, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR, e.g. Devices Which Apply A Lifting OR Pushing Force Directly TO THE Surface OF A Load). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (17 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Manitou sits between Leica Biosystems Melbourne PTY Ltd and Molecular Imprints, Inc..
Manitou Italia S.R.L. shows 30 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
