What this shows SNF Group stamps GRANTS-SMALL, MID-PACK, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-FOCUS, INNOV-PAR, CLAIMS-RICH, TYPE-FRNCORP, SPAN-YRS, BOOK-RICH. Volume places it #12,672 of 50,000; Innovation Score 57.1/100 sits in the top 5% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Shmuel UR Innovation Ltd. (±0 grants).
SNF Group has been granted 24 US utility patents between 2023 and 2025, placing SNF Group at #12,672 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 20 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 17.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in C08F (MACROMOLECULAR COMPOUNDS OBTAINED BY REACTIONS ONLY INVOLVING CARBON-TO-CARBON UNSATURATED BONDS). As a Foreign Corporation, SNF Group is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, SNF sits between Shmuel UR Innovation Ltd. (24 patents, rank #12,658) and Specialty Operations France (24 patents, rank #12,666) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 57.1/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Historical data spans 2023 through 2025, with 24 total grants over that period. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. SNF Group's 17.0 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 20 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
