Portfolio overview

TATE & LYLE Solutions USA Llc has been granted 18 US utility patents between 2022 and 2025, placing TATE & LYLE Solutions USA Llc at rank #16,414 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 21 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in A23L (FOODS, FOODSTUFFS OR NON-ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES, NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR; PREPARATION OR TREATMENT THEREOF). As a US Corporation, TATE & LYLE Solutions USA Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, TATE sits between Taiki Corp., Ltd. (18 patents, rank #16,410) and TEL Manufacturing AND Engineering OF America, Inc. (18 patents, rank #16,418) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 57.2/100 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. Historical data spans 2022 through 2025, with 18 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. 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. TATE & LYLE Solutions USA Llc's 18.1 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 21 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark TATE & LYLE Solutions USA Llc 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.
