Company patents
COOLER MASTER CO., LTD.
COOLER MASTER CO., LTD's patent strategy reveals a surprising recent surge in "Printed Circuits & Electronic Assemblies," with a 57.9% YoY growth in 2025, making it their largest category at 52.3% of their portfolio, despite a significant decline so far in 2026. This contrasts with a consistent decline in core cooling-related areas like "Heat Exchangers (Specific Types)" and "Heat Exchange Components," which saw YoY drops of 13.3% and 14.3% respectively in 2025, indicating a potential shift in focus towards electronic integration rather than purely mechanical thermal solutions.
