The verdict
Saint-gobain holds 122 US patents across 66 technology areas, rank #3,106 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Saint-gobain Isover has been granted 122 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Saint-gobain Isover at rank #3,106 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 66 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 17.9 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 Foreign Corporation, Saint-gobain Isover is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Saint-gobain sits between Natera, Inc. (122 patents, rank #3,102) and Thermwood Corporation (122 patents, rank #3,110) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 60.5/100 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 72 grants, compared with 50 in the 2015–2019 window, a +44% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. Saint-gobain Isover's 17.9 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 66 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Saint-gobain Isover against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Saint-gobain's 122 grants land it in the top 3% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
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.
