Portfolio overview

Flowserve Pte. Ltd. has been granted 32 US utility patents between 2023 and 2025, placing Flowserve Pte. Ltd. at rank #9,770 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 31 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 17.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in F16K (VALVES; TAPS; COCKS; ACTUATING-FLOATS; DEVICES FOR VENTING OR AERATING). As a Foreign Corporation, Flowserve Pte. Ltd. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Flowserve sits between FOSS Analytical A/s (32 patents, rank #9,766) and Grob-werke Gmbh & Co. KG (32 patents, rank #9,774) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 62.3/100 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. Historical data spans 2023 through 2025, with 32 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. 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. Flowserve Pte. Ltd.'s 17.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 31 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Flowserve Pte. Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio

Flowserve's 32 grants land it in the top 2% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - Flowserve ranks #9,770 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in F16K - see who else leads that technology area. F16K leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

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.
