Patents

Smol­tek uses a glob­al pat­ent strategy to pro­tect our tech­no­logy plat­form in all import­ant mar­kets. This includes core pat­ents as well as pat­ent pro­tec­tion at applic­a­tion level. At present, we have a pat­ent port­fo­lio that com­prises about 110 applied and pending pat­ents, dis­trib­uted among 20 pat­ent fam­il­ies, of which 80 are granted. 

The stra­tegic and con­tinu­ous devel­op­ment of our pat­ent port­fo­lio is driv­en by the need for dis­rupt­ive mater­i­als and tech­nic­al solu­tions that enables indus­tri­ally com­pat­ible fab­ric­a­tion of nano­struc­tures for vari­ous applic­a­tions, like ultra-thin capa­cit­ors and new high-per­form­ance cell mater­i­al for electrolyzers. 

Our innov­at­ive tech­no­logy plat­form is pro­tec­ted with an IP-port­fo­lio of +110 pat­ents gran­ted and pending, as well as a sig­ni­fic­ant body of know-how and trade secrets.
