THE Sure Chill Company Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under F25D (REFRIGERATORS; Cold ROOMS; ICE-BOXES; Cooling OR Freezing Apparatus NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, THE sits between THE Lightco Inc. and Thyssenkrupp System Engineering GMBH.
THE Sure Chill Company Limited shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
