USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 11 granted patents across 10 technology areas, active 2016–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: F16J (PISTONS ; CYLINDERS; SEALINGS).
The verdict
Trelleborg holds 11 US patents across 10 technology areas, rank #25,362 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Trelleborg Sealing Solutions US, Inc. has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing Trelleborg Sealing Solutions US, Inc. at rank #25,362 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 10 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in F16J (PISTONS ; CYLINDERS; SEALINGS). As a US Corporation, Trelleborg Sealing Solutions US, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Trelleborg sits between Topconn Electronic (kunshan) Co., Ltd. (11 patents, rank #25,358) and TTN Holdings, Llc (11 patents, rank #25,366) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 30.4/100 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 5 grants, compared with 6 in the 2015–2019 window, a -17% 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. Trelleborg Sealing Solutions US, Inc.'s 15.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 10 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Trelleborg Sealing Solutions US, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Trelleborg's 11 grants land it in the top 66% 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.
