Portfolio overview
Progressive International Corp. has been granted 109 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Progressive International Corp. at rank #3,404 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 17 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 6.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in A47J (KITCHEN EQUIPMENT; COFFEE MILLS; SPICE MILLS; APPARATUS FOR MAKING BEVERAGES). As a US Corporation, Progressive International Corp. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Progressive sits between Kerr Machine Co. (109 patents, rank #3,400) and SIG Technology Ag (109 patents, rank #3,408) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 38.4/100 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 32 grants, compared with 77 in the 2015–2019 window, a -58% 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. Progressive International Corp.'s 6.7 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 17 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Progressive International Corp. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

- Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works
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.
