Company patents
NKT HV Cables AB
NKT HV Cables AB's patent strategy reveals a strong, sustained focus on its core "Cables & Conductors" (73.4% of portfolio) and "Power Cable Installation" (40.5% of portfolio) categories, with the latter showing significant growth of +66.7% in 2025. While there's an emerging interest in "Ships & Marine Vessels" with a patent so far in 2026 after a patent in 2024, the sharp decline in filings across most categories in 2026 (e.g., "Cables & Conductors" down 75.0% and "Power Cable Installation" down 86.7% YoY, albeit with partial year data) suggests a potential shift in R&D priorities or a cyclical patenting pattern.
