Across all tracked assignees
USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 149 granted patents across 64 technology areas, active 2015–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: B05B (SPRAYING APPARATUS; ATOMISING APPARATUS; NOZZLES).
The verdict
Dürr holds 149 US patents across 64 technology areas, rank #2,606 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Dürr Systems Ag has been granted 149 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Dürr Systems Ag at rank #2,606 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 64 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 17.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in B05B (SPRAYING APPARATUS; ATOMISING APPARATUS; NOZZLES). As a Foreign Corporation, Dürr Systems Ag is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Dürr sits between Amotech Co., Ltd. (149 patents, rank #2,602) and LTS Lohmann Therapie-systeme Ag (149 patents, rank #2,610) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 59.1/100 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 105 grants, compared with 44 in the 2015–2019 window, a +139% 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. Dürr Systems Ag's 17.5 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 64 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Dürr Systems Ag against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Dürr's 149 grants land it in the top 4% 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.
