The verdict
Brugg holds 10 US patents across 11 technology areas, rank #25,878 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Brugg ROHR Ag Holding has been granted 10 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Brugg ROHR Ag Holding at rank #25,878 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 11 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 16.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in F16L (PIPES; JOINTS OR FITTINGS FOR PIPES; SUPPORTS FOR PIPES, CABLES OR PROTECTIVE TUBING; MEANS FOR THERMAL INSULATION IN GENERAL). As a Foreign Corporation, Brugg ROHR Ag Holding is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Brugg sits between Brand Developers Ltd (10 patents, rank #25,874) and Bunge Loders Croklaan B.v. (10 patents, rank #25,882) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 34.6/100 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 4 grants, compared with 6 in the 2015–2019 window, a -33% 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. Brugg ROHR Ag Holding's 16.9 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 11 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Brugg ROHR Ag Holding against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Brugg's 10 grants land it in the top 52% 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.
