Portfolio overview

Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies Support has been granted 102 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies Support at rank #3,613 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 34 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 16.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in C02F (TREATMENT OF WATER, WASTE WATER, SEWAGE, OR SLUDGE). As a Foreign Corporation, Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies Support is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Veolia sits between Super Micro Computer, Inc. (102 patents, rank #3,609) and Bentley Motors Limited (101 patents, rank #3,617) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 51.6/100 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 50 grants, compared with 52 in the 2015–2019 window, a -4% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies Support's 16.0 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 34 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies Support against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio

Veolia's 102 grants land it in the top 11% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - Veolia ranks #3,613 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in C02F - see who else leads that technology area. C02F leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

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.
