Portfolio overview

SAES Getters S.p.a. has been granted 65 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing SAES Getters S.p.a. at rank #5,315 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 75 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01J (ELECTRIC DISCHARGE TUBES OR DISCHARGE LAMPS). As a Foreign Corporation, SAES Getters S.p.a. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, SAES sits between Reifenhäuser Gmbh & Co. KG Maschinenfabrik (65 patents, rank #5,311) and Schneider Toshiba Inverter Europe SAS (65 patents, rank #5,319) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 57.5/100 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 26 grants, compared with 39 in the 2015–2019 window, a -33% 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. SAES Getters S.p.a.'s 15.3 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 75 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark SAES Getters S.p.a. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
