The verdict
BASF holds 6 US patents across 7 technology areas, rank #39,021 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
BASF Construction Solutions Gmbh has been granted 6 US utility patents between 2015 and 2019, placing BASF Construction Solutions Gmbh at rank #39,021 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 7 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in C04B (LIME, MAGNESIA; SLAG; CEMENTS; COMPOSITIONS THEREOF, e.g. MORTARS, CONCRETE OR LIKE BUILDING MATERIALS; ARTIFICIAL STONE ; CERAMICS ; REFRACTORIES; TREATMENT OF NATURAL STONE). As a Foreign Corporation, BASF Construction Solutions Gmbh is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, BASF sits between BAM Bundesanstalt Fuer Materialforschung Und-pruefung (6 patents, rank #39,017) and Baxley Equipment Co. (6 patents, rank #39,025) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 27.2/100 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. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 0 grants, compared with 6 in the 2015–2019 window, a -100% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The Foreign 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. BASF Construction Solutions Gmbh's 18.5 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 7 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark BASF Construction Solutions Gmbh against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
BASF's 6 grants land it in the top 77% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
