Company patents
ConvaTec Technologies Inc.
ConvaTec Technologies Inc. demonstrates a clear focus on core medical device technologies, with Implants & Prosthetics comprising 61.1% of its portfolio, despite a significant decline in patenting activity so far in 2026 across most categories. Surprisingly, while Sterilization & Biocompatible Materials saw a robust 200.0% YoY growth in 2024 and 33.3% in 2025, and Drug Delivery Devices grew 66.7% in 2024, the company appears to be shifting away from Healthcare Informatics, which experienced a -100.0% YoY decline in 2026 after a -50.0% decline in 2025.
