The verdict
Hydro holds 6 US patents across 12 technology areas, rank #40,688 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Hydro Extrusion USA, Llc has been granted 6 US utility patents between 2020 and 2025, placing Hydro Extrusion USA, Llc at rank #40,688 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 12 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in F16B (DEVICES FOR FASTENING OR SECURING CONSTRUCTIONAL ELEMENTS OR MACHINE PARTS TOGETHER, e.g. NAILS, BOLTS, CIRCLIPS, CLAMPS, CLIPS OR WEDGES; JOINTS OR JOINTING). As a US Corporation, Hydro Extrusion USA, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Hydro sits between HYBE Co., Ltd (6 patents, rank #40,684) and Hyperkinetics Corporation (6 patents, rank #40,692) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 48.5/100 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. Historical data spans 2020 through 2025, with 6 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. 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. Hydro Extrusion USA, Llc's 15.8 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 12 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Hydro Extrusion USA, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Hydro's 6 grants land it in the top 16% 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.
