Where Weidmann's grants concentrate

Weidmann Holding AG is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 57.1% of grants classified under D21C (Production OF Cellulose BY Removing Non-cellulose Substances From Cellulose-containing MATERIALS; Regeneration OF Pulping LIQUORS; Apparatus Therefor). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Weidmann sits between Waters Industries, Inc. and Wells Lamont Industry Group LLC.

Weidmann's three-year grant acceleration

Weidmann Holding AG shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
