The verdict
Georgia-pacific holds 121 US patents across 55 technology areas, rank #3,118 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Georgia-pacific Consumer Products Lp has been granted 121 US utility patents between 2015 and 2020, placing Georgia-pacific Consumer Products Lp at rank #3,118 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 55 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 23.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in D21H (PULP COMPOSITIONS; PREPARATION THEREOF NOT COVERED BY SUBCLASSES D21C OR D21D; IMPREGNATING OR COATING OF PAPER; TREATMENT OF FINISHED PAPER NOT COVERED BY CLASS B31 OR SUBCLASS D21G; PAPER NOT OTHERW). As a US Corporation, Georgia-pacific Consumer Products Lp is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Georgia-pacific sits between Elago Co. Ltd (121 patents, rank #3,114) and Landscape Forms, Inc. (121 patents, rank #3,122) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 55.6/100 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 1 grants, compared with 120 in the 2015–2019 window, a -99% 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. Georgia-pacific Consumer Products Lp's 23.4 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 55 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Georgia-pacific Consumer Products Lp against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Georgia-pacific's 121 grants land it in the top 7% 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.
