Where Mermet's grants concentrate

Mermet is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under C03C (Chemical Composition OF Glasses, Glazes OR Vitreous ENAMELS; Surface Treatment OF GLASS; Surface Treatment OF Fibres OR Filaments Made From Glass, Minerals OR SLAGS; Joining Glass TO Glass OR Other MA). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Mermet sits between Merctech Pty Ltd and Merus B.V..

Mermet's three-year grant acceleration

Mermet shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
