Company patents

SIG Services AG

SIG Services AG's patent strategy reveals a strong, albeit consolidating, focus on its core "Containers & Packaging" sector, which constitutes 53.5% of its portfolio, despite a significant -60.0% decline in patenting activity so far in 2026. Surprisingly, while "Plastics Shaping & Molding" and "Packaging Machines" show declining trends, "Layered Products (Laminates, Films)" emerged as a rapidly growing focus in 2025 with a +66.7% YoY increase, indicating a strategic shift towards advanced material science within its packaging solutions, even though 2026 data is partial.
