Portfolio overview

Asbury Graphite Of North Carolina, Inc. has been granted 5 US utility patents between 2022 and 2024, placing Asbury Graphite Of North Carolina, Inc. at rank #44,947 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 20 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01B (CABLES; CONDUCTORS; INSULATORS; SELECTION OF MATERIALS FOR THEIR CONDUCTIVE, INSULATING OR DIELECTRIC PROPERTIES). As a US Corporation, Asbury Graphite Of North Carolina, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Asbury sits between Artco-bell Corporation (5 patents, rank #44,943) and Ashtech Industries, Llc (5 patents, rank #44,951) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 49.1/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Historical data spans 2022 through 2024, with 5 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Asbury Graphite Of North Carolina, Inc.'s 11.8 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 20 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Asbury Graphite Of North Carolina, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
