Company patents
KIDDE TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
KIDDE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. shows a surprising patent strategy with a strong emerging focus on Batteries & Fuel Cells, which saw a significant 100.0% YoY growth in 2026 (so far) and represents 18.1% of its portfolio, despite a sharp decline in 2025. This contrasts with a clear shifting priority away from Temperature Measurement, which has seen a consistent decline, including a -100.0% YoY drop in 2026, and other manufacturing-related categories like Spraying & Atomizing and Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing) which also show recent declines.
