The verdict
Fiskars holds 105 US patents across 25 technology areas, rank #3,493 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Fiskars Brands, Inc. has been granted 105 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Fiskars Brands, Inc. at rank #3,493 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 25 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 6.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in B26B (HAND-HELD CUTTING TOOLS NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR). As a US Corporation, Fiskars Brands, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Fiskars sits between ZF Active Safety Gmbh (106 patents, rank #3,489) and HCT Group Holdings Limited (105 patents, rank #3,497) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 43.0/100 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 20 grants, compared with 85 in the 2015–2019 window, a -76% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Fiskars Brands, Inc.'s 6.7 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 25 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Fiskars Brands, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Fiskars's 105 grants land it in the top 29% 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.
