Portfolio overview
Nilar International AB has been granted 6 US utility patents between 2016 and 2021, placing Nilar International AB at rank #41,993 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 7 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01M (PROCESSES OR MEANS, e.g. BATTERIES, FOR THE DIRECT CONVERSION OF CHEMICAL ENERGY INTO ELECTRICAL ENERGY). As a Foreign Corporation, Nilar International AB is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Nilar sits between Nielsen & Bainbridge, Llc. (6 patents, rank #41,989) and Ningbo Beilun Haiyu Automotive Lamp Co., Ltd. (6 patents, rank #41,997) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 23.2/100 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 2 grants, compared with 4 in the 2015–2019 window, a -50% 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. Nilar International AB's 11.8 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 7 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Nilar International AB against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
