Portfolio overview

Faurecia Emissions Control Technologies, USA, Llc has been granted 122 US utility patents between 2015 and 2023, placing Faurecia Emissions Control Technologies, USA, Llc at rank #3,096 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 34 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 20.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in F01N (GAS-FLOW SILENCERS OR EXHAUST APPARATUS FOR MACHINES OR ENGINES IN GENERAL; GAS-FLOW SILENCERS OR EXHAUST APPARATUS FOR INTERNAL-COMBUSTION ENGINES). As a US Corporation, Faurecia Emissions Control Technologies, USA, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Faurecia sits between ECCO Sko A/s (122 patents, rank #3,092) and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Machinery Systems, Ltd. (122 patents, rank #3,100) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 52.8/100 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 76 grants, compared with 46 in the 2015–2019 window, a +65% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The US 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. Faurecia Emissions Control Technologies, USA, Llc's 20.7 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 34 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Faurecia Emissions Control Technologies, USA, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
