The verdict
Doosan holds 354 US patents across 128 technology areas, rank #1,197 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction Co., Ltd. has been granted 354 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction Co., Ltd. at rank #1,197 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 128 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in F05D (INDEXING SCHEME FOR ASPECTS RELATING TO NON-POSITIVE-DISPLACEMENT MACHINES OR ENGINES, GAS-TURBINES OR JET-PROPULSION PLANTS). As a Foreign Corporation, Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction Co., Ltd. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Doosan sits between Shiseido Company, Limited (356 patents, rank #1,193) and Applied Materials Israel Ltd. (353 patents, rank #1,201) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 55.1/100 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 222 grants, compared with 132 in the 2015–2019 window, a +68% 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. Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction Co., Ltd.'s 15.2 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 Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction Co., Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Doosan's 354 grants land it in the top 7% 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.
