Portfolio overview

Microban Products Company has been granted 47 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing Microban Products Company at rank #7,040 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 21 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in A01N (PRESERVATION OF BODIES OF HUMANS OR ANIMALS OR PLANTS OR PARTS THEREOF ; BIOCIDES, e.g. AS DISINFECTANTS, AS PESTICIDES OR AS HERBICIDES ; PEST REPELLANTS OR ATTRACTANTS; PLANT GROWTH REGULATORS). As a US Corporation, Microban Products Company is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Microban sits between Lenovo Global Technology (united States) Inc. (47 patents, rank #7,036) and Maxar Space Llc (47 patents, rank #7,044) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 45.4/100 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 36 grants, compared with 11 in the 2015–2019 window, a +227% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Microban Products Company's 11.8 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 21 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Microban Products Company against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

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.
