Portfolio overview

Valeo Systemes D'essuyage has been granted 357 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Valeo Systemes D'essuyage at rank #1,190 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 58 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in B60S (SERVICING, CLEANING, REPAIRING, SUPPORTING, LIFTING, OR MANOEUVRING OF VEHICLES, NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR). As a Foreign Corporation, Valeo Systemes D'essuyage is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Valeo sits between Denka Company Limited (359 patents, rank #1,186) and Volvo Construction Equipment AB (355 patents, rank #1,194) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 56.2/100 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. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 180 grants, compared with 177 in the 2015–2019 window, a +2% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. Valeo Systemes D'essuyage's 12.7 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 58 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Valeo Systemes D'essuyage against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
