USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 10 granted patents across 11 technology areas, active 2016–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: F16L (PIPES; JOINTS OR FITTINGS FOR PIPES; SUPPORTS FOR PIPES, CABLES OR PROTECTIVE TUBING; MEANS FOR THERMAL INSULATION IN GENERAL).
The verdict
Georg holds 10 US patents across 11 technology areas, rank #26,400 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Georg Fischer Llc has been granted 10 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing Georg Fischer Llc at rank #26,400 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 11 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in F16L (PIPES; JOINTS OR FITTINGS FOR PIPES; SUPPORTS FOR PIPES, CABLES OR PROTECTIVE TUBING; MEANS FOR THERMAL INSULATION IN GENERAL). As a US Corporation, Georg Fischer Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Georg sits between Genesis Robotics LLP (10 patents, rank #26,396) and Glaston Finland Oy (10 patents, rank #26,404) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 28.6/100 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 7 in the 2015–2019 window, a -57% 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. Georg Fischer Llc's 14.4 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 11 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Georg Fischer Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Georg's 10 grants land it in the top 72% 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.
