USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 18 granted patents across 10 technology areas, active 2017–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: B66B (ELEVATORS; ESCALATORS OR MOVING WALKWAYS).
The verdict
Wittur holds 18 US patents across 10 technology areas, rank #16,508 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Wittur Holding Gmbh has been granted 18 US utility patents between 2017 and 2025, placing Wittur Holding Gmbh at rank #16,508 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 10 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 13.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in B66B (ELEVATORS; ESCALATORS OR MOVING WALKWAYS). As a Foreign Corporation, Wittur Holding Gmbh is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Wittur sits between Waskey Bridges, Inc. (18 patents, rank #16,504) and Weir Slurry Group, Inc. (18 patents, rank #16,512) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 39.6/100 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 12 grants, compared with 6 in the 2015–2019 window, a +100% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Wittur Holding Gmbh's 13.8 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 Wittur Holding Gmbh against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Wittur's 18 grants land it in the top 38% 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.
