The verdict
Dümmen holds 558 US patents across 7 technology areas, rank #822 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Dümmen Group B.v. has been granted 558 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Dümmen Group B.v. at rank #822 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 7 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 1.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in A01H (NEW PLANTS OR ; NON-TRANSGENIC; PROCESSES FOR OBTAINING THEM; PLANT REPRODUCTION BY TISSUE CULTURE TECHNIQUES). As a Foreign Corporation, Dümmen Group B.v. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Dümmen sits between Kabushiki Kaisha Yaskawa Denki (561 patents, rank #818) and Parsons Xtreme GOLF, Llc (556 patents, rank #826) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 33.6/100 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 252 grants, compared with 306 in the 2015–2019 window, a -18% 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. Dümmen Group B.v.'s 1.3 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 7 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Dümmen Group B.v. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Dümmen's 558 grants land it in the top 55% 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.
