Portfolio overview
Hanover Prest-paving Company has been granted 10 US utility patents between 2019 and 2024, placing Hanover Prest-paving Company at rank #26,475 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 3 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in E04F (FINISHING WORK ON BUILDINGS, e.g. STAIRS, FLOORS). As a US Corporation, Hanover Prest-paving Company is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Hanover sits between Hangzhou Innogate Pharma Co., Ltd. (10 patents, rank #26,471) and Hearth Hounds, Llc (10 patents, rank #26,479) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 22.6/100 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 9 grants, compared with 1 in the 2015–2019 window, a +800% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Hanover Prest-paving Company's 10.8 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while specialization in 3 subclasses reflects a tightly scoped invention area. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Hanover Prest-paving Company against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
