PATENTS
Intellectual property
Five registered rights, plus national-phase applications across five jurisdictions. Rights are held by the founder; Sweet Touch operates them commercially.
Overseas patent filings total six: one PCT international application (filing period closed) and five national-phase applications — United States, Japan, China, Hong Kong and the European Patent Office — currently under examination. Four domestic patent applications have been filed in total, of which two are registered and two remain under examination. The SMART5 Rights grade A (top 12.3%) refers specifically to KR 10-2588730 and reflects the sub-category benchmark used in that evaluation.
