Portfolio overview

Shiloh Industries, Inc. has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2015 and 2020, placing Shiloh Industries, Inc. at rank #25,150 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 15 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in Y10T (TECHNICAL SUBJECTS COVERED BY FORMER US CLASSIFICATION). As a US Corporation, Shiloh Industries, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Shiloh sits between Shenzhen Lingyi Innovation Technology Co., Ltd (11 patents, rank #25,146) and Shire Viropharma Llc (11 patents, rank #25,154) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 33.2/100 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 1 grants, compared with 10 in the 2015–2019 window, a -90% 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. Shiloh Industries, Inc.'s 18.3 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 15 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Shiloh Industries, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

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.
