The verdict
INTER holds 157 US patents across 46 technology areas — rank #2,485 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
INTER IKEA SYSTEMS B.V. has been granted 157 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing INTER IKEA SYSTEMS B.V. at rank #2,485 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 46 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 7.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in A47B (TABLES; DESKS; OFFICE FURNITURE; CABINETS; DRAWERS; GENERAL DETAILS OF FURNITURE). As a Foreign Corporation, INTER IKEA SYSTEMS B.V. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 57.2/100 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 129 grants, compared with 28 in the 2015–2019 window — a +361% 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. INTER IKEA SYSTEMS B.V.'s 7.1 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 46 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark INTER IKEA SYSTEMS B.V. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
