What this shows Life Technologies Holdings PTE Ltd stamps GRANTS-SMALL, UPPER-Q, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-FOCUS, INNOV-THIN, CLAIMS-PAR, TYPE-FRNCORP, VEL-SURGE, BOOK-FULL. Volume places it #8,854 of 50,000; Innovation Score 38.0/100 sits in the top 42% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Leggett & Platt Canada Co. (±0 grants).
Life Technologies Holdings PTE Ltd has been granted 36 US utility patents between 2018 and 2025, placing Life Technologies Holdings PTE Ltd at #8,854 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 13 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 8.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01N (INVESTIGATING OR ANALYSING MATERIALS BY DETERMINING THEIR CHEMICAL OR PHYSICAL PROPERTIES). As a Foreign Corporation, Life Technologies Holdings PTE Ltd is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Life sits between Leggett & Platt Canada Co. (36 patents, rank #8,852) and Martas Precision Slide Co., Ltd. (36 patents, rank #8,860) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 38.0/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 22 grants, compared with 7 in the 2015–2019 window, a +214% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Life Technologies Holdings PTE Ltd's 8.2 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 13 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
