The verdict
Borregaard holds 13 US patents across 36 technology areas, rank #20,866 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Borregaard AS has been granted 13 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Borregaard AS at rank #20,866 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 36 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 21.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in D21H (PULP COMPOSITIONS; PREPARATION THEREOF NOT COVERED BY SUBCLASSES D21C OR D21D; IMPREGNATING OR COATING OF PAPER; TREATMENT OF FINISHED PAPER NOT COVERED BY CLASS B31 OR SUBCLASS D21G; PAPER NOT OTHERW). As a Foreign Corporation, Borregaard AS is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Borregaard sits between Bluescope Buildings North America, Inc. (13 patents, rank #20,862) and Bounce Enterprises Llc (13 patents, rank #20,870) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 63.4/100 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 11 grants, compared with 2 in the 2015–2019 window, a +450% 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. Borregaard AS's 21.8 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 36 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Borregaard AS against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Borregaard's 13 grants land it in the top 2% 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.
