LMFP Freedom to Operate (FTO)

At HCM CO., LTD., we prioritize moving innovation forward responsibly and confidently.
To ensure that our #LMFP material, G3E, is developed with confidence and compliance, we partnered with Saint Island International Patent & Law to conduct a comprehensive Freedom to Operate (FTO) assessment.
Using the Global Patent Search System (GPSS), 271 patents were meticulously screened and analyzed. Each patent’s claims were evaluated against the composition and manufacturing processes used in G3E.
✅ The result? G3E shows a low risk of patent infringement.
Why does this matter?
💡 Product Development: Enables faster R&D with fewer legal risks.
🌎 Global Expansion: Builds confidence entering international markets.
📄 Regulatory Compliance: Ensures alignment with IP due diligence standards.
🤝 Partnerships: Strengthens trust with partners and investors by minimizing legal uncertainties.
FTO is more than a legal checkbox — it's a strategic enabler for innovation, scalability, and collaboration.
We’re proud of the rigorous process our team has undertaken to support our mission of delivering safe, scalable, and future-ready battery materials.
