Portfolio overview

Swiss Krono Tec Ag has been granted 36 US utility patents between 2017 and 2025, placing Swiss Krono Tec Ag at rank #8,920 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 39 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 17.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in B27N (MANUFACTURE BY DRY PROCESSES OF ARTICLES, WITH OR WITHOUT ORGANIC BINDING AGENTS, MADE FROM PARTICLES OR FIBRES CONSISTING OF WOOD OR OTHER LIGNOCELLULOSIC OR LIKE ORGANIC MATERIAL). As a Foreign Corporation, Swiss Krono Tec Ag is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Swiss sits between Sinox Company Ltd. (36 patents, rank #8,916) and Shanghai Neusoft Medical Technology Co., Ltd. (36 patents, rank #8,924) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 49.3/100 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 27 grants, compared with 9 in the 2015–2019 window, a +200% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Swiss Krono Tec Ag's 17.4 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 39 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Swiss Krono Tec Ag 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.
