USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 16 granted patents across 17 technology areas, active 2020–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: E02D (FOUNDATIONS; EXCAVATIONS; EMBANKMENTS ; UNDERGROUND OR UNDERWATER STRUCTURES).
The verdict
Tensar holds 16 US patents across 17 technology areas, rank #18,168 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Tensar International Corporation has been granted 16 US utility patents between 2020 and 2025, placing Tensar International Corporation at rank #18,168 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 17 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in E02D (FOUNDATIONS; EXCAVATIONS; EMBANKMENTS ; UNDERGROUND OR UNDERWATER STRUCTURES). As a US Corporation, Tensar International Corporation is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Tensar sits between Technip Process Technology, Inc. (16 patents, rank #18,164) and THE Indian Institute OF Technology Kharagpur (16 patents, rank #18,172) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 55.5/100 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 2020 through 2025, with 16 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. Tensar International Corporation's 18.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 17 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Tensar International Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Tensar's 16 grants land it in the top 7% 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.
