Portfolio overview
CLARIANT INTERNATIONAL LTD has been granted 213 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing CLARIANT INTERNATIONAL LTD at rank #1,885 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 87 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 17.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in B01J (CHEMICAL OR PHYSICAL PROCESSES, e.g. CATALYSIS OR COLLOID CHEMISTRY; THEIR RELEVANT APPARATUS). As a Foreign Corporation, CLARIANT INTERNATIONAL LTD is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 60.8/100 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 121 grants, compared with 92 in the 2015–2019 window — a +32% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. CLARIANT INTERNATIONAL LTD's 17.8 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 87 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark CLARIANT INTERNATIONAL LTD against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
