Portfolio overview
CK MATERIALS LAB CO., LTD. has been granted 46 US utility patents between 2017 and 2025, placing CK MATERIALS LAB CO., LTD. at rank #7,126 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 30 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a Foreign Corporation, CK MATERIALS LAB CO., LTD. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 48.0/100 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 36 grants, compared with 10 in the 2015–2019 window — a +260% 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. CK MATERIALS LAB CO., LTD.'s 12.5 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 30 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark CK MATERIALS LAB CO., LTD. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
