Portfolio overview
MANITOU ITALIA S.R.L. has been granted 53 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing MANITOU ITALIA S.R.L. at rank #6,358 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 29 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 9.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in B66F (HOISTING, LIFTING, HAULING OR PUSHING, NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR, e.g. DEVICES WHICH APPLY A LIFTING OR PUSHING FORCE DIRECTLY TO THE SURFACE OF A LOAD). As a Foreign Corporation, MANITOU ITALIA S.R.L. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 58.5/100 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 45 grants, compared with 8 in the 2015–2019 window — a +463% 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. MANITOU ITALIA S.R.L.'s 9.5 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 29 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark MANITOU ITALIA S.R.L. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
