Company patents
CALB Co., Ltd.
CALB Co., Ltd. exhibits a highly concentrated patent strategy, with an overwhelming 94.3% of its portfolio in Batteries & Fuel Cells, which is surprising given the significant year-over-year declines of 33.9% in 2024 and 63.4% in 2025 within this core area. While other categories like Electric Vehicle Propulsion and Vehicle Powertrain Arrangement show a complete cessation of patenting in 2025 and so far in 2026, the company appears to be exploring minor, albeit inconsistent, activity in areas like Printed Circuits & Electronic Assemblies, with 1 patent so far in 2026 after two years of no activity.
