Portfolio overview

Nonwoven Network Llc has been granted 5 US utility patents between 2016 and 2018, placing Nonwoven Network Llc at rank #49,206 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 13 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 22.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in D04H (MAKING TEXTILE FABRICS, e.g. FROM FIBRES OR FILAMENTARY MATERIAL ; FABRICS MADE BY SUCH PROCESSES OR APPARATUS, e.g. FELTS, NON-WOVEN FABRICS; COTTON-WOOL; WADDING ; ; NON-WOVEN FABRICS FROM STAPLE FI). As a US Corporation, Nonwoven Network Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Nonwoven sits between Nodal Film Systems Llc (5 patents, rank #49,202) and North China University Of Technology (5 patents, rank #49,210) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 32.5/100 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 0 grants, compared with 5 in the 2015–2019 window, a -100% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Nonwoven Network Llc's 22.6 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while concentration in 13 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Nonwoven Network Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
