Portfolio overview

RPM Industries, Llc has been granted 29 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing RPM Industries, Llc at rank #10,735 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 19 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 22.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in F01M (LUBRICATING OF MACHINES OR ENGINES IN GENERAL; LUBRICATING INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES; CRANKCASE VENTILATING). As a US Corporation, RPM Industries, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, RPM sits between Quickstep Technologies Llc (29 patents, rank #10,731) and Rovi Product Corporation (29 patents, rank #10,739) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 47.0/100 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 19 grants, compared with 10 in the 2015–2019 window, a +90% 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. RPM Industries, Llc's 22.0 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while concentration in 19 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark RPM Industries, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
