Portfolio overview

Iceberg Luxembourg S.a.r.l. has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2017 and 2020, placing Iceberg Luxembourg S.a.r.l. at rank #24,541 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 19 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in A23P (SHAPING OR WORKING OF FOODSTUFFS, NOT FULLY COVERED BY A SINGLE OTHER SUBCLASS). As a Foreign Corporation, Iceberg Luxembourg S.a.r.l. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Iceberg sits between IWT S.r.l. (11 patents, rank #24,537) and Igisu Co., Ltd. (11 patents, rank #24,545) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 31.5/100 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. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 1 grants, compared with 10 in the 2015–2019 window, a -90% 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. Iceberg Luxembourg S.a.r.l.'s 12.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 19 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Iceberg Luxembourg S.a.r.l. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
