What this shows Centre's Innovation Score is 42.5/100 (top 30% 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 Centre?

Each dot is one of Centre’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). Centre’s own 13.7 claims/patent is at or below the 15.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Centre's grants concentrate

Centre Leon Berard is a focused PatentsView assignee: 20 CPC subclasses with 55.2% of grants classified under G01N (Investigating OR Analysing Materials BY Determining Their Chemical OR Physical Properties). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Centre sits between Calgon Carbon Corporation and Cmech (GUANGZHOU) Ltd..

Centre's three-year grant acceleration

Centre Leon Berard shows 10 grants in 2022–2024 against only 10 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.
