The verdict
Bestway holds 113 US patents across 48 technology areas, rank #3,298 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Bestway Inflatables & Material Corp. has been granted 113 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing Bestway Inflatables & Material Corp. at rank #3,298 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 48 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in E04H (BUILDINGS OR LIKE STRUCTURES FOR PARTICULAR PURPOSES; SWIMMING OR SPLASH BATHS OR POOLS; MASTS; FENCING; TENTS OR CANOPIES, IN GENERAL). As a Foreign Corporation, Bestway Inflatables & Material Corp. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Bestway sits between Versalis S.p.a. (114 patents, rank #3,294) and Federal-mogul Ignition Gmbh (113 patents, rank #3,302) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 58.2/100 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 88 grants, compared with 25 in the 2015–2019 window, a +252% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Bestway Inflatables & Material Corp.'s 15.8 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 48 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Bestway Inflatables & Material Corp. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Bestway's 113 grants land it in the top 5% 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.
