Where Sterilumen's grants concentrate

Sterilumen, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A61L (Methods OR Apparatus FOR Sterilising Materials OR Objects IN GENERAL; Disinfection, Sterilisation OR Deodorisation OF AIR; Chemical Aspects OF Bandages, Dressings, Absorbent Pads OR Surgical ARTICLES;). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Sterilumen sits between State Grid Huzhou Power Supply Company and Streamax Technology Co., Ltd..

Sterilumen's three-year grant acceleration

Sterilumen, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
