Company patents

Inno-Pak, LLC

Inno-Pak, LLC's patent strategy reveals a surprising shift away from its core "Containers & Packaging" focus, which constitutes 31.6% of its portfolio but has seen a consistent decline, including a -75.0% drop so far in 2026. This is further emphasized by the dramatic -100.0% year-over-year decline in "Packaging Machines" patents in 2024, suggesting a broader re-evaluation of its manufacturing-related IP priorities.
