Portfolio overview
Brunswick Corporation has been granted 905 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Brunswick Corporation at rank #493 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 126 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in B63H (MARINE PROPULSION OR STEERING). As a US Corporation, Brunswick Corporation is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 66.7/100 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 481 grants, compared with 424 in the 2015–2019 window — a +13% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. Brunswick Corporation's 15.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a diversified footprint across 100+ CPC subclasses spreads risk across many technology fronts. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Brunswick Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
