Portfolio overview
Total Piping Solutions, Inc. has been granted 10 US utility patents between 2015 and 2022, placing Total Piping Solutions, Inc. at rank #27,675 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 3 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in F16L (PIPES; JOINTS OR FITTINGS FOR PIPES; SUPPORTS FOR PIPES, CABLES OR PROTECTIVE TUBING; MEANS FOR THERMAL INSULATION IN GENERAL). As a US Corporation, Total Piping Solutions, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Total sits between Titcomb Brothers Manufacturing, Inc. (10 patents, rank #27,671) and Transdev Group Innovation (10 patents, rank #27,679) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 26.3/100 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 4 grants, compared with 6 in the 2015–2019 window, a -33% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Total Piping Solutions, Inc.'s 15.3 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while specialization in 3 subclasses reflects a tightly scoped invention area. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Total Piping Solutions, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
