What this shows Allnex's Innovation Score is 42.2/100 (top 31% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Allnex?

Each dot is one of Allnex’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Allnex’s own 17.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Allnex's grants concentrate

Allnex Netherlands BV is a focused PatentsView assignee: 19 CPC subclasses with 95.2% of grants classified under C09D (Coating Compositions, e.g. Paints, Varnishes OR LACQUERS; Filling PASTES; Chemical Paint OR INK REMOVERS; INKS; Correcting FLUIDS; WOODSTAINS; Pastes OR Solids FOR Colouring OR PRINTING; USE OF Materi). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (9 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2017. By volume, Allnex sits between Össur hf and Amtech Systems, LLC.

Allnex's three-year grant acceleration

Allnex Netherlands BV shows 10 grants in 2022–2024 against only 19 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
