USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 8 granted patents across 15 technology areas, active 2017–2022. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: B09C (RECLAMATION OF CONTAMINATED SOIL).
The verdict
Guangdong holds 8 US patents across 15 technology areas, rank #31,841 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Guangdong Institute Of Eco-environmental Science & Technology has been granted 8 US utility patents between 2017 and 2022, placing Guangdong Institute Of Eco-environmental Science & Technology at rank #31,841 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 15 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in B09C (RECLAMATION OF CONTAMINATED SOIL). As a Foreign Corporation, Guangdong Institute Of Eco-environmental Science & Technology is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Guangdong sits between Greentec-usa, Inc. (8 patents, rank #31,837) and Guangzhou Yu Junrui Trading Co., Ltd (8 patents, rank #31,845) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 29.0/100 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 2 grants, compared with 6 in the 2015–2019 window, a -67% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Guangdong Institute Of Eco-environmental Science & Technology's 10.1 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 15 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Guangdong Institute Of Eco-environmental Science & Technology against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Guangdong's 8 grants land it in the top 71% 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.
