Portfolio overview

Grundfos Holding A/S has been granted 214 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Grundfos Holding A/S at rank #1,875 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 80 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 17.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in F04D (NON-POSITIVE-DISPLACEMENT PUMPS). As a Foreign Corporation, Grundfos Holding A/S is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 58.8/100 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 137 grants, compared with 77 in the 2015–2019 window — a +78% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Grundfos Holding A/S's 17.7 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 80 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Grundfos Holding A/S against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
