USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 7 granted patents across 16 technology areas, active 2016–2023. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search.

The verdict
Skanska holds 7 US patents across 16 technology areas, rank #37,433 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Skanska Sverige AB has been granted 7 US utility patents between 2016 and 2023, placing Skanska Sverige AB at rank #37,433 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 16 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 16.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in F28D (HEAT-EXCHANGE APPARATUS, NOT PROVIDED FOR IN ANOTHER SUBCLASS, IN WHICH THE HEAT-EXCHANGE MEDIA DO NOT COME INTO DIRECT CONTACT). As a Foreign Corporation, Skanska Sverige AB is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Skanska sits between SITA Information Networking Computing Ireland Limited (7 patents, rank #37,429) and Slinger BAG Ltd (7 patents, rank #37,437) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 38.0/100 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 1 grants, compared with 6 in the 2015–2019 window, a -83% 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. Skanska Sverige AB's 16.7 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 16 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Skanska Sverige AB against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Skanska's 7 grants land it in the top 42% 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.
