USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 9 granted patents across 6 technology areas, active 2017–2024. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: F28D (HEAT-EXCHANGE APPARATUS, NOT PROVIDED FOR IN ANOTHER SUBCLASS, IN WHICH THE HEAT-EXCHANGE MEDIA DO NOT COME INTO DIRECT CONTACT).
The verdict
EURO holds 9 US patents across 6 technology areas, rank #28,658 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
EURO HEAT Pipes has been granted 9 US utility patents between 2017 and 2024, placing EURO HEAT Pipes at rank #28,658 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 6 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in F28D (HEAT-EXCHANGE APPARATUS, NOT PROVIDED FOR IN ANOTHER SUBCLASS, IN WHICH THE HEAT-EXCHANGE MEDIA DO NOT COME INTO DIRECT CONTACT). As a Foreign Corporation, EURO HEAT Pipes is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, EURO sits between Essity Operations France (9 patents, rank #28,654) and EXFO OY (9 patents, rank #28,662) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 30.4/100 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 3 grants, compared with 6 in the 2015–2019 window, a -50% 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. EURO HEAT Pipes's 14.7 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 6 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark EURO HEAT Pipes against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
EURO's 9 grants land it in the top 66% 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.
