Company patents
SUMIDA CORPORATION
SUMIDA CORPORATION's patent strategy reveals a surprising emerging focus on Electrotherapy / Radiation Therapy, which despite being a small 8.8% of its portfolio, saw a significant 200.0% YoY growth in 2025. While Magnets & Inductors remains a core area at 37.5% of the portfolio, its sharp decline of 82.4% so far in 2026 suggests a potential shift in priorities, contrasting with its rapid growth in 2025.
